You might be tempted to take off and fly.
You'd find yourself half-way across the map, before realising you forgot something.
Unless you want to fly, there's a portal outside. 😎

Surigosa also takes the free-use portal with you. Must be too frugal to use their own reagents.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

I can hear the pained cries of rage and agony from these essences. I suspect this was triggered after attempting to put them to rest. They were dormant for a time, but the combined rage of both Malygos and Sindragosa merged together to create this phenomenon. Quickly, we must make for the Azure Archives and inform Kalecgos and Sindragosa of this! Together, we may be able to finally give them the peace that they deserve.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

What Still RemainsLevel 36-80
The barrier is weakening, thanks to your aid. In a moment it will be broken down. Our main priority is recovering Malygos and Sindragosa's essences. Something has gone very wrong with laying them to rest. There are a few theories I have regarding their current state.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

The Last ConflictLevel 36-80
Malygos and myself both suffered horribly violent ends. The remains of our essences have been trapped in an endless loop. They must be reformed, and broken out of that loop. To do so will require a tremendous amount of concentrated power.
