It may take a few kills, but you'll get a buff that lasts for 2 minutes. The totems you need to 'visit' look the same as ones at every bridge entry and exit, but they are smaller. From 40,17. Work your way up the bridge to the west tower, cross the second bridge to the other tower and you'll see a small totem at the other side. Go back and go up to the east tower, cross the second bridge to the other tower and go down to the lower level, you'll find the second totem there. The other two totems are easy to find if you follow the coordinates given above.

This quest can be done with ONLY one kill. You don't have to dismount to get the prophecy's as you'll get them automaticly by standing at the totem.
-----
Step 1: Find out where the totems are located nad make yourself known by how to reach them.
-----
Step 2: Kill a Grishna Falconwing
-----
Step 3: Ride through the camp and visit ALL the totems. I recommend doing them in this cycle:
-
Fourth(On the left side of the hut),
-
Third (By the swamp),
-
First (In the northern towers, last tower)
-
Second (Last tower on the lower floor at the southern towers).

I hope this help some of you! =)

What to do

StorylineBlade's Edge Mountains, step 75 of 95

Description

At Grishnath, totems left by the Oracles of the Raven enable the arakkoa to hear the Word of the Raven. Unfortunately, the language of the arakkoa is indecipherable to us. Using the Harbinger's pendant, we can understand it. You will be able to take the souls of the arakkoa to understand their language. While you are suffused with the arakkoa's spirit, you can visit the totems and understand their message. Discover this for us, {name}.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Creating the PendantBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    The arakkoa of Ruaan Weald elevate from their flock the Harbingers of the Raven, the heralds of their god. They believe that the Harbingers watch over them from the sky, where they receive the teachings of the Raven, and descend to pass this message along.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Little EmbersBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    Northeast of here, on the plateau above us lies the burnt ashes of my ancient home. A great wood flourished there before the Burning Legion sent their imps to burn us away. So many died that even centuries later my tired old heart hungers for revenge.
