Description

Make no mistake--I have no intention of sending you off to skitter about in the dark like a freshly-hatched beetle. It wouldn't do to have my little morsel snatched up by a starving cave borer.

You must educate yourself, my dear. Your allies have found themselves ensconced in a torrid tapestry. Only by familiarizing yourself with its erstwhile architects can you hope to reclaim them.

Luckily for you, I have made some of my personal resources available to you.

The two non-quest gossip options that went away after the quest is completed:

Do you know where my allies are?

Worry not, little morsel. I am well aware that you did not come down here alone. I've already sent my weave-rats to track down your compatriots.

Consider it a gesture of good faith... And, with luck, the start of a long and mutually beneficial relationship.

How did you know where to find me?

I specialize in little pushes, dear. Every plan is a tapestry, and I am adept at nudging and tugging just one thread at a time. You, though, are less of a tugged thread and more of a lit match.

The Harbringer's shadowy venom has stained Ansurek's tapestry. That is why I sought you out. I require a stray ember, and you need a friend in the dark.

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.
