What to do

StorylineTerokkar Forest, step 55 of 78

Description

Terokk's perch, Skettis, looms above the Bone Wastes to the east. At the base of Skettis lies Veil Shalas, the most formidable of Terokk's colonies. It is through the stronghold of Veil Shalas that Terokk's forward sages wage war against the Light. The evil-doers of Shalas communicate with their master using a complex system of magical signal fires. Travel to the east, {race}, and extinguish the fires. Once Veil Shalas is silenced, we can begin to plot the fall of Skettis. But I get ahead of myself.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to ShattrathTerokkar Forest · Level 15-30

    Your actions, while brave, will surely rouse a vindictive response from Terokk. Hurry to Shattrath. Send word to Rilak!
