The three keepers are in the various camps throughout Silithus.

Twilight Keeper Manya at the Twilight Post in the northwest. Holds lexicon 1.

Twilight Keeper Exeter at the Twilight Outpost in the southwest. Holds lexicon 2.

Twilight Keeper Havunth at the Twilight Base Camp, just southwest of Cenarian Hold. Holds lexicon 3.

All are level 60 and more difficult than the enemies around them.

Description

The Twilight's Hammer are not kind to those that leave their ranks. They hunt me to this day like I'm some sort of beast! Needless to say, an enemy of theirs is a friend of mine! To decipher this Tablet I'll need the book used by their scribes to encode secret messages: the Twilight Lexicon. It's such an important tool that they keep its three chapters in different locations! The officers entrusted with the Lexicon are known as Twilight Keepers. Look for them at the Twilight's Hammer camps.

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.

  • The DeserterSilithus · Level 15-30

    There are rumors of a Twilight's Hammer member called Ortell having deserted his sect. Word has it he hid in the mountains south of Southwind Village, where he lives as a hermit. Perhaps you can enlist his help in deciphering the tablet. Take the restored tablet with you and seek out Ortell.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • True BelieversSilithus · Level 15-30

    Now that I have the Twilight Lexicon in my possession, there is a small favor I'd like to ask of you. My former organization has a secret encoded bulletin they circulate on a monthly basis.
