Description

Magtoor has told me of the shamanism that the Broken practice. The great Nobundo once said that the path of the elements may, in a way, be another way to the Light. I can only hope there is some truth in this. The elementals that gather near Purespring Cavern to the south are a source of truly pristine water. They can be chaotic and violent, but the pure water harvested from them will be the perfect conduit for the blessing of the Light. Please, bring me this water, {name}.

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.

  • Secrets of the MireSwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    The Shifting Mire takes its name from a unique phenomenon. By some force, the extremely fine silt will collect, and move on its own accord, travelling as if alive.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Breath of MistSwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    The Grell are forest spirits that wander the Misty Valley to the east. Though they resemble imps, I have found no demonic traces among the ones I've studied. They are, as far as I can tell, uncorrupted.
