Description
I can sense three beacons of void ahead, all funneling their power into one massive font of darkness. You will need to kill them. With them dead, I can bring down the shield.
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.
- Crossroads of Twilight
We need to take the Veneration Grounds back from the kobyss. Push them back and pave a bloody path through them. We need to stop whatever is happening at the Eternal Flame! If they manage to corrupt it like they did at the tower... I don't even want to imagine what will happen.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Candle in the Dark
Beledar has turned to Shadow, we must retreat back to Mereldar! <Vaelisia looks towards Aelric Leid.> I-- No. We need to destroy Aelric first. Take him down, then we retreat.
