Description

An ancient city of the dead can only mean one thing. The Veiled Ossuary off the coast of northern Thaldraszus. It's extensive, remote, and hard to approach. The perfect place to hide something. I'm not sure what we'll find there, {name}. But you can bet that it won't appreciate our presence.

    Did ya see Szar Skeleth on your way in? It's that ruined tower to the northeast. We've got a bit of a good news, bad news situation there. The good news is the stone's already been found. Bad news is it was found by the Sundered Flame, specifically a magic-using dracthyr named Makko.
