Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Getting PermissionThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    My love, Lo, tried to get permission to marry me from the pandriarchs. Though they have passed beyond, their favor would carry a lot of weight. Thing is, they are spirits, and none of the gifts or tributes we brought impress them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Courteous GuestThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    I heard, I heard! The High Elder wants you to train with us! There's going to be a banquet for us, the trainees... and you should probably bring a gift, as a sign of courtesy. The oranges in the grove south of the temple are extra-sweet right now. Bring some back, for the banquet.
