Read the quest
Whatever disturbed the ley lines, it started at the top of the Violet Citadel. A thunderous crash rang out from the parlors above, and now we are overrun with rampant arcane power. It's taking all we have just to keep the wards in place.
We cannot afford to stall any longer. We need help.
The Kirin Tor are busy inside, but you will still need a less public approach to gain entry. Take this key and meet me in the citadel once you've made your way into the city. We must put an end to this disruption.
