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.

  • Colossal GuardiansUldum · Level 30-35

    The chest containing the scepter appears to be magically sealed and will not budge. The plaque above it depicts two giant statues holding star and moon-shaped stones sockets at their center. The two statues are pictured guarding pyramids that look like the ones outside.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Send Word to PhaorisUldum · Level 30-35

    Hurry, <name>. We must speak to my brother, the king. He is bent on averting war with Al'Akir and the Neferset. He has foolish hopes that there is a diplomatic solution to this problem. Maybe once he hears what occurred here he will see reason.
