To Light the Way

To Light the Way is a quest for level 10-45 in Helheim. It is step 7 of 12 in the To Helheim and Back storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Helheim at 46.8, 48.9. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 6,150 experience and money.

Description

Helya must think her challenge unwinnable. We will show her different.

I am unsure what she did, but Helya has weakened you somehow. I have seen similar effects on my shieldmaidens, and now they are trapped by Helya's minions.

I may know a way, however. The Kvaldir ships carry special lanterns bound to this place to navigate through the fog. It is said that the light of these lanterns can release bonds of the spirit.

There is a kvaldir ship nearby. See if you can find one there.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Eternal NemesisHelheim · Level 10-45

    <Helya's voice echoes in the sky above the altar> You say that you do not belong here among the unworthy, outsider, but your spirit fragments so easily. How am I to know you speak the truth? I cannot, so you must show me. Bring yourself to the eternal battlefield and face my champion.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • SunderedHelheim · Level 10-45

    I imagine the power of your weapon will be what allows us to defeat Geir, but right now you are too weak for the confrontation. We must reclaim the missing pieces of your spirit. Helya must have scattered them throughout her realm to keep them from you.
