NPC: Sidly
NPC: Fyrga
QUEST: Cinders of Faith
Fyrga, Tranquil Ardent of Magran, has had her faith shaken by the Hollowborn crisis in Defiance Bay. As a result, she's been unable to keep the city's sacred fires lit. They're a symbol of triumph and protection, and they're more important now than ever.
Travel to the cave from Fyrga's vision.
Fyrga has had visions of a cave at a place with multicolored pools and a rising waterfall. She believes that something there would restore her faith, but she also believes that something else there would try to kill her.
If I were to find this item for her, she might be able to resume her duties and resurrect the sacred fires of Defiance Bay.
Fyrga didn't know where to find the place she saw in her vision, but someone at the expedition hall might know.
