Description

I had told Orren I'd be back by now, but Velhan's Claim has larger problems than I expected. The people here need my help against the kobyss.

<name>, I've always been better with a sword than a pen. Strong feelings and being far apart makes it even harder.

I'm more at home protecting the vulnerable than being vulnerable.

Perhaps I could tell you what I want to get across and you could write it for me?

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.

  • Regularly Scheduled MaintenanceHallowfall · Level 75-78

    I've got another problem that's a bit more... personal, <name>. My girlfriend, Aemyra, is a Lamplighter. I thought she'd be back from her last mission, to Velhan's Claim, by now. Could you go make sure she's okay, and deliver this message? I'm worried to the point of distraction.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Job Killing Robot Or...Hallowfall · Level 75-78

    I shouldn't have set ELIZA to simply gather as much food as she could. She was working, but when a wagon came by, full of food for Mereldar, she started chasing it! And she wouldn't let me access her decision sprockets or tensor springs! I kept trying, but ELIZA wouldn't stop.
