Through the Old Roads

Through the Old Roads is an Alliance-only quest for level 20-60 in Drustvar. It is step 1 of 5 in the Gol Osigr storyline, the opening step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Drustvar at 40.0, 58.1. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 1,000 experience and money.

Description

Lady Waycrest has entrusted me with securing the town of Falconhurst and the services of Master Alchemist Ashton who lives there. However, I have found out no one has heard from Falconhurst in some time.

The skies above the forest are impassable, so we must travel the old roads through Drust ruins in the mountains. A small capable party has a better chance to bypass the growing forces of the witches and to help secure Master Alchemist Ashton.

To that end, I ask you to assist me.

    There is an opportunity here. Learning more about the Drust can not only help us understand the texts that Lady Lucille found, we might be able to discover greater details about how they and their constructs were finally defeated. Filling in the gaps of history could be key to victory now.
