Gather the Portraits of the First Wardens from Smith's Haven before they are burned, and then return them to Philobian Mikkarz.
As Smith's Haven burns, so do our precious valuables. They may seem unimportant now, but once the fighting ends and the task of rebuilding commences, such items will raise our spirits. You must get them out of Smith's Haven before they are nothing but ash!
Thank you so much for saving these Portraits of the First Wardens. These items will keep us from despair once our people begin rebuilding the ruins of their homes.
Please, do not allow our Portraits of the First Wardens to be destroyed.

Speak to Asha Catari at Lotham's Strike to learn her plan, then help her escape to Meridian with the ancient Ethian device.
These Guardians are fools! They're blinded by their piety - they cannot see the value of being able to open planes at will and travel to them! We should have this device. We can use it to take the fight to the planes and protect all of Telara!
Asha is alive?! And she got away with the ancient Ethian device?! Haha!
This is wonderful news, Ascended. I'll send word to the Faceless Man right away. You've done a great deed for the Defiants this day, [%NAME].
Any word? Have you found Asha? I would begin your search in southern Lotham's Strike near the active life rift.

Thomas Penthas wants you to save the Spirit Guide before the Sunken Marsh boglings can sacrifice her to Greenscale.
This blade's purpose is clear - to cut a Spirit Guide's tether to this world. Taking the form of woodland animals, Guides carry out the Vigil's will. I just saw the boglings drag a deer into their camp - it must be the Spirit Guide. I pray it's not too late!
You saved the Spirit Guide in time? I was sure the boglings would have slain her by now, but my faith is not what it once was. You succeeded where I failed. The gods must favor you, [%NAME].
Now it is time to figure out what this Spirit Guide is here to tell us.
You must hurry! The boglings I saw were headed in the direction of the small islands southeast of Sunken Marsh. Rescue the Spirit Guide before it's too late!

Furtho Dragomir wants you to use the Gloam Bell at his manor's balcony, on top of the Barrel Vault, to start the award ceremony.
Your heroic deeds deserve praise, [%NAME]. Please take this Gloam Bell and ring it from my balcony here on top of the Barrel Vault tree. Let the citizens of Gloamwood Pines know that their curse has been lifted and that you are to thank.
With the Hag defeated and the curse lifted, we can finally start rebuilding our lives here in Gloamwood. But I have no doubt that there will be those who seek to exploit our wood now that the threat of the Hag is no more. I could certainly use someone like you on my council in the days to come.
Don't be shy, [%NAME]. Allow the good people to show you their praise and bask in your glory!

Raish Komarr has asked you to use the Defiant Scanner on weakened Bidden Abominations in Blightweald, northeast of Timberveil, to measure their residual death magic.
We need to learn more about planar death magic before we can build suitable defenses. To the northeast lies Blightweald, one of the most heavily shadetouched areas in Moonshade. Scan the Bidden Abominations that walk there and we shall learn their weaknesses.
After all these years, it seems as though the death magic in those Bidden Abominations hasn't ebbed one bit. It almost seems as if some external force is amplifying the corruption even more.
The ettins at Blightweald are known as Bidden Abominations, a name taken from some recovered dwarven tomes. Scan them and return to me.

I've already heard of how you fought the rift creatures. I thank you, [%NAME], but I fear they will only return again tomorrow.
Good luck against the rift monsters.

Erikka Khemmerlund has asked to seek out and disable the Abyssal Runic Totems at Acrid Basin, north of the Seersage Camp, taking note of anything out of the ordinary.
Cultists like the Abyssal are the moths in the weave of our world, and they don't even know it. I've seen them littering Acrid Basin with strange ritual totems, wielding odd magics like there were no consequences. I know better. We must destroy the cultists' rituals! Report back to me anything interesting you discover.
What's this you say? The Totems were made up of a combination of death magic and water magic? I have an idea what's going on now. The inscriptions you describe sound like a spell to fuse these two types of magic and collect it for later use. The Abyssal must be preparing for some sort of elaborate ritual.
Acrid Basin is a dangerous place. We are forever grateful for your help here, [%NAME].

Assist the Waykeepers in Silkweb Pass by collecting Discarded Supplies from the crates scattered throughout the area and Harvested Webbing from the local spiders.
We Waykeepers are used to making the most from very little. For example, webbing from the local spiders makes a surprisingly effective bandage for more serious wounds.
And while our woodscraft has prepared us to live off of the land when need be, we'll use whatever supplies we can get in our hands. I bet there are plenty of useful supplies left in the lost cargo that litters the pass. Better that we put what we can to a good cause rather than let it rot away in the woods.
These Discarded Supplies will do us a lot of good, [%NAME]. Please keep whatever else you found as reimbursement for your troubles.
Unscrupulous traders of worthless charms have been moving into Gloamwood Pines to take advantadge of our misfortune, but many of their shipments don't seem to survive the trip through Silkweb Pass. I can't say I shed any tears when their shipments fail to arrive.

Ben Kwally in Lantern Hook wants you to scout the Jagged Fringe, the region to the west. Check the five areas marked by Lantern Hook Banners, then report back to Ben Kwally.
Mind doing some reconnaissance? The Lantern Hook Banners mark the route my scouts used to patrol before they become so preoccupied with their fear of dying. If you showed them how it's done, maybe they'd find their courage again.
Done reconnoitering? I hope you managed to depopulate some of the Jagged Fringe - the beasts out there are a menace. Unfortunately, your bravery hasn't convinced my soldiers to follow your example. They want more pay. I'll pay them alright - with a beating.
Those banners aren't going to scout themselves, champ.

Protector Carah has asked you to scout the Shatterbone cultist camps in Timar Foothills.
The reports we've been getting on these cultists have me worried. If we're to have a plan of action, we need to know more. Would you be willing to investigate the cultist camps and give us reliable information on the state of things?
This is not good news. That the cultists have moved so far into the foothills is concerning at best. That they are accompanied by undead only makes matters even more worrisome. We'll have to deal with this before it can get worse.
Traveler reports so far seem to indicate the cultists are taking over the entire foothills. I can't believe things have gone that far. We'll need a more accurate accounting to truly know the extent of things.

Can you see the Aelfwar watching us from the ridgeline at the Mirror of Ages? They claim to protect Silverwood, but their actions reveal them as blasphemous brutes. One day, they'll swarm down and raze the town. Kill their spies before they scout our defenses.
I appreciate your gumption, [%NAME]. I don't know about you, but I feel better with fewer of those Aelfwar Agents around. One day, we're going to clear their entire army out of this forest for good.
They Aelfwar at the Mirror of Ages blend in with the trees and forest floor, but if you direct your gaze to the north you'll see them, slinking through the trees. Kill their spies before they can find the weak spots in our defenses.

You shall be my hand of vengeance. Go forth and put an end to the witch's dark ceremony!
By stopping Alsbeth's ritual in the Eye of Regulos, you have brought us victory today, [%NAME], but the war is not over. We must carry the fight forward to the Endless Citadel itself. By the gods, I promise Alsbeth and her lackeys shall know the meaning of fear.

A time of fate's choosing draws near. The Nexus Attractor must be used outside the portal, and the evil within destroyed. There are sages poised to close the portal, but I fear they are not a match for what is within. Are you up to the task?
We can all breathe a bit easier now, [%NAME]. With that portal destroyed, we should be safer for now, but the root cause behind that portal remains. We will work to see none of the portals reach that point again.
The longer we delay, the larger the portal behind the tower grows. Soon, it will be large enough to threaten the Sagespire itself and all within. Hurry, it must be closed soon!

Sergeant Heinrich asks that you travel southwest from Heroes' Stand to the steps on the edge of Lord's Hall and rescue soldiers trapped by giant spiders.
I hate this thrice-damned place! We need to reach the shrine beneath Lord's Hall, but we're losing ground. We sent an offensive against the Undying Legion, but only one man returned. He says the spiders overwhelmed them before they even cleared the steps.
So it's true, our soldiers didn't even make it past the lower steps. The caliber of our recruits is not what it once was, but they are all we have. Times being what they are, we can scarcely afford to lose a single able body. I am sure they, too, are grateful to you for saving them.
I would urge you to hurry, but it is probably already too late...

Aha! The blood is tainted with the same dark magic that corrupted The Harrow. All is not lost. With your help, and a bit of Sourcestone Dust from Deepstrike Excavation, I could make a medicine to remove the magic without harming the patient.
It may seem like a small thing you've done by collecting the Sourcestone Dust, but you've saved some lives today!
I've prepared the rest of the ingredients and am ready to make the cleansing elixir. Just give me a moment to prepare it.
You must hurry to collect the Sourcestone Dust. I'm sure you can find it throughout the Deepstrike Excavation.

Olmos the Delver suggests that you hurry to Harlan's Lament in the Droughtlands. There, in an ancient holy site atop the massive, wind-carved rock, lies a copy of the knowledge Chekharoth was seeking.
Olmos sees the White Dragon's plot. It is not clever, but perilous enough. The Dragon seeks to free the air spirit Yor, the madness of the storm, to scour the lands of the fleshlings as it did during the Age of Dragons.
Olmos knows where to find the same knowledge which the White Dragon holds. The Dragon's gaolers can make use of this.
This is most dire news, [%NAME]. According to legend, Yor is a fury that not even Crucia could fully control. Instead, she aimed Yor on a path and watched the kingdoms of men tremble. Yor cannot be allowed to return to our world!
Please, [%NAME], retrieve this knowledge of which Olmos spoke and return here immediately. It sounds like we have no time to lose!

There are artifacts all around us, you just have to keep your eyes open. They tell us about the world and give us insight into what has happened to Telara, and those that would shatter the harmony of the gods.

There are three artifacts in Sanctum. Seek them out.
