What to do
Description
I... I don't think I can mend this. The Zur'ashar were right. I am no true paintmaker. I cannot even capture history properly within my own memories... how could I ever hope to honor it in moments that matter? I thought I could create something beautiful... something worthy. I was foolish to try. Can you... can you help me clean this mess? I... I have no hope left to do it myself.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dusk Among Pigments
As Zur'ashar, our oath is to safeguard the harmony within the visions and the histories we preserve. Yet Orn'shan's crude strokes are reckless. Their creative impulses lack refinement, disturbing the balance we are sworn to protect.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Colors Born Anew
Outsider... thank you. I'm still shaken... but I can feel a small spark returning. I'd nearly abandoned my work entirely, yet your kindness... it has steadied me.
