Up 1 due to actual good question. Stay on the water. Reachable by boat. No reason to go "high" anymore. Ugh.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Invoking the Serpent
I am familiar with these artifacts. I believe that they were brought here by Magatha Grimtotem herself. But she's not amongst the Grimtotem on Darkcloud Pinnacle. She disappeared right after she arrived, and no one knows where she is now. Maybe we can find out.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Free the Pridelings
The trappers are rounding up all of the young wind riders. <name>, will you go out there and free the pridelings?
