Description

<Runas looks antsy.>

I can help you, and I very much want to help you, but I'm a bit distracted. Look at all that raw, unfiltered, mouthwatering mana...

<Runas slaps his own face.>

No! NO! You must stay in control!

I simply need to clear my head. Yes, that's it. A few of my depraved brethren carry small mana jewels around with them in case they need a quick burst of energy. Find a few for me? Then I will show you how to get your ley line back.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Runas Knows the WayAzsuna · Level 10-45

    I wish to make it up to you for whatever I did that made you want to kill me. Hmm... your dragon complains about being weak. I know why. Runas can fix it, my friend. One of my kind, Ael'Yith, pulls ley energy from the very ground of Azsuna. I can take you to the location of his mana siphons.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Leyline AbuseAzsuna · Level 10-45

    These monsters are pulling mana directly out of the ground. This explains why not even my mana pools can dull my pain. I worry about my brood. Without the power of the ley lines, we are nothing. At this rate, I may not even be able to help you with your Tidestone.
