Previous Quest: Lysonia's Plan.

You will pick up the quest and then head to the Maw. Once you fly to Oribos, [npc=156361] will be located on the outer ring (on the upper floor) you will need to talk to her before jumping into The Maw. Once you have arrived at the maw you will need to head to Perdition Hold

Note: Your Eye of the Jailer level for the day will stay that way, potentially making the quest harder.

This will take you to the next quest A Step Too Far and Kyrian No More.

Just a heads up to hopefully help someone else:

This campaign quest becomes available when you hit Renown 20 with the Kyrian. If you know you're going to hit this Renown level. . . wait to do your Maw Dailies until after you complete this specific quest. If you do your Maw dailies (like I did) before you do this quest and cap on your Eye of the Jailer. . . it will not phase you in The Maw. You will escort Kleia into the Maw with whatever level you have for that day.

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.

  • Lysonia's PlanBastion · Level 60

    Lysonia has brought the Paragon to his knees! The Maw powers she wields are far too potent. We must stop her.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Step Too FarBastion · Level 60

    My initial scouting revealed things I did not believe at first. The Mawsworn hold Forsworn captive here, transforming them against their will. Though the Forsworn stand against the Archon, they are still kyrian. It is our duty to free them.
