Description

We don't know much about the Empyrean Society's activities here, but now that you appear to be a new recruit you should be able to ask some questions and take a look around for the strange magic Archmage Vargoth detected. Let's meet up at the rotunda on the hill.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Prepare To Be AssimilatedLevel 10-45

    The Empyrean Society is a dangerous cult. They claim to study all magic regardless of its source, but in reality they focus mostly on the forbidden. They will welcome you to their enclave if you bring them a magical artifact.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Some Knowledge Shouldn't Be SharedLevel 10-45

    I noticed that quite a few of the Empyrean Society's books are inscribed with fel magic. That's blasphemous. We must confiscate as many as we can.

The storyline at a glance

Rise of the Tirisgarde I has 12 steps, from Ancient Magic to Recruiting Apprentices.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Azsuna (6), Hall of the Guardian (4), Hall of the Guardian (2).
