Description

We are told never to walk in the darkness. To carry light wherever we go. The thought of returning this way filled me with dread. But your courage shines with splendor, {name}. At your side, my way is lit. No more hiding. The beast clad in black chitin, the one that killed my friends, dies in that cave. I am with you.

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.

  • Mow the MassesHallowfall · Level 75-78

    Maevest and I broke away from the others and fled, their screams left in our wake. Foul muck smothered our lanterns and we stumbled in the dark through knee-high waters. I heard a splash like she had tripped and fallen in, but I couldn't bring myself to look back.
