Quest text

What the quest giver says.

‹name›, ‹class› and ‹race› stand for your character’s.

The Catalyst Wards used to be peaceful. Pilgrims have been coming here for ages to observe the wonders of the First Ones. But this place is no longer safe. The Cultivator showed no mercy and no reason as it slew several of our brethren. You must destroy it. Other Elders would disagree with me. The other Elders are wrong.
