Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Springing the Trap
We owe this opportunity in great part to your efforts, <name>. It is only fitting that you initiate the attack on Malygos. Take this spark and use it to light the signal fire northwest of the Nexus. Keristrasza will direct you from there.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Suitable Test Subject
<Laurith looks you over as if to size you up.> So we've got this pollinated bloodspore flower and nobody to test its effects on. Say, would you perhaps be interested in rubbing this on your skin and letting me observe? What's the worst that could happen anyway? Don't you worry, <name>!
