Prerequisites
You must know Krombral, the Giants' language, in order to complete this quest.
Starting the Quest
- Approach the ravine in Lavastorm that leads to the entry to Maiden's Gulch and speak to Sebir the Historian ( -168, -10, -546 ) who tells you about the sage who needs to be rescued.
- Enter Maiden's Gulch: Rescue of the Sage. (You must be level 50 to bring your group into the zone.)
- Kill the Drakota Inquisitor and Vyr'drais the Vicious (51^^^ Heroic) with 2 adds, and then hail The Sage of Ages on the platform behind him to start the quest.
Steps
- Once you've started the quest with the Sage, travel to the bottom of Solusek's Eye (sublevel 6, where translucent paths wind over the lava) and enter Nagafen's Lair. ( -202, -617, -198 ) .
- Note: to get to Nagafen's Lair you will need to take a lift to the third floor ( -325, -595, 187 ) in the Giant Apartments. It may appear that you can only travel up to the second floor, so to get to the third floor open the door once you arrive at the second floor and hit the "up" option on the triangular button just inside the door. Then hustle back onto the lift since there is a short delay before the lift moves up to the third floor. There will be a one-way ledge at ( -103, -614, -292 ) followed by the Oratorium of Thyr. (This instance is not required for the quest, but must be completed unless you have the assistance of someone with access to the deserted version.)
- Speak to Majordomo Inferinus who tells you that you need to learn the Elder Dragon language to be able to speak with Lord Nagafen.
- Return to The Sage of Ages in Antonica on the top floor of the Tower of the Oracles ( -1030, 14, -618 ) . If he disappears or is not there, leave and re-enter the tower again. He tells you that you need to find 26 translated runes of Elder Dragon to learn the language.
- Gather the 26 runes: If this is your first character (on a given account) completing this quest, you must gather the 26 runes from their locations in the world, as listed below.
- If you have already completed this quest on at least one character, you can transfer the heirloom tablet of the runes from completing the quest (which can be re-purchased at the Shady Swashbuckler on the Nektulos docks) through the shared bank to satisfy this step.
- Once you have all 26, speak to The Sage of Ages again in Antonica at ( -1030, 14, -618 ) for your reward.
Locations of the runes
The runes are scattered all over the Shattered Lands (the zones originally available when the game launched).
With GU56, an alternate method of updating the runes was also introduced. If you have completed To Speak as a Dragon with another character on your account, they may purchase a Tablet of Draconic Runes from Shady Swashbuckler XVIII on the Nektulos Forest docks for 3g 68s 64c. This tablet is Lore/Heirloom and may be passed down to other characters on your account through the shared bank. Examining this tablet will then update the quest for all of the draconic runes.
