Objectives Edit

Kill a Twilight Field Captain and recover the Glyph of Opening.

•  [Glyph of Opening]

Description Edit

My Nemesis. Still lives.
The servants of fire still come.
We must pursue. Into their den.

The ogres know the way.
Slay the Field Captains.
Recover the Glyph of Opening.

This is the way.

Rewards Edit

You will receive: 7 80

Progress Edit

The glyph. Show it to me.

Completion Edit

This power is ancient.
Primitive.
Easy.

We will use it against them.

Notes Edit

Pick up the following quests Breakthrough and Lost Wardens before heading out. While killing Twilight Scorchlords and saving Lost Wardens, kill a Twilight Field Captain to loot his [Glyph of Opening] and return to Tortolla. Try to kill one early in the progress of the other quests so the trek back to Tortolla happens sooner rather than later.
