Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Oh Great... Plagued Magnataur!Borean Tundra · Level 10-30

  Tinky and I came out here stalking some old magnataur. Apparently those caves up there are where they go to die. Of course, we had no idea that they were going to get plagued when they went in there. We can't have plagued things just roaming about; it's not healthy.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Rats, Tinky Went into the Necropolis!Borean Tundra · Level 10-30

  I told Tinky not to go off on her own, but she just HAD to check out that crashed necropolis to the west. I'm 100% certain that those cultists came from inside that thing, which means I'm now 100% certain that Tinky's in trouble! She's the airstrip's number one engineer. Without her we're doomed!
