Template:Stub/Cataclysm

Objectives

Scout the edge of the rounded terrace to the northwest and the terrace tunnel to the north.

Scout the Tunnel to the north
Scout the Northwestern Terrace

Description

Vicious louts... they did a lot of damage with those spears.

<The <Admiral/Captain> winces slightly as he clutches a wound on his side.

We'll hold here as long as we can for all the men to make it. I need someone to scout their numbers to see how much damage we did. Are you willing?

Rewards

You will receive: 7 80

Progress

Any word... on their numbers?

Completion

Still so many? They must want something very important to come here in such numbers.

I will be honest with you, <name>, because you deserve at least that: I don't know how much hope there is. We will retreat shortly, but we won't be able to defend ourselves when they strike back. We don't have anywhere to run... we're running out of options.

I'm sorry. I should keep such thoughts to myself. Do me a favor and don't mention that to any of the men. I'll figure something out.

Notes

Shimmering Expanse

From the quest giver's position, circle clockwise to the southwest around the terrace, talking to soldiers along the way. While scouting, spot the second Vision of the Battlemaiden due west of the rendezvous point at ^{[28.9, 78.7]}. Keep heading north past the circular part of the ruins to find a tunnel a bit to the north with lots of naga coming out. Circle back around to the southeast to get back to the quest givers, talking to any last soldiers necessary.

Northwest: The assault looks like it did almost no damage at all. They're already back in formation!
Tunnel: The naga priestesses look to be summoning a newar endless stream of reinforcements!
