Description
Did these fiends show my kin mercy when they attacked Bastion? When they tore my brothers and sisters limb from limb and used them to create more of these... these monstrosities?! No! The butchers of Bastion made clear their hearts that day! They deserve only the eternal darkness that awaits them. Ensure that they meet it!
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.
- Fight and Flight
Mograine and Emeni will lead the assault on the western gate. You and Xandria will advance from the east. Secure the area and slay all who oppose you. Once we have them surrounded, we can strike the final blow against Gharmal.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Justice from Above
Our forces above cannot fully descend upon this area while the Margrave's crystals cover the sky in destructive blasts. The Margrave's foul butchers work even now to extract the remaining anima from the kyrian they abducted in their assault on Bastion. We must advance at once.
