Shepherd of the Pawns Quest Overview
Starting the Quest
Before setting off for the Excavation Site, make sure to embark on the “Hall of the First Dawn” quest, which sets up a hub for evacuees. Travel southeast from the Volcanic Island Camp to reach the excavation site. Note that this area does not support teleportation, requiring a manual journey across the altered landscapes of The Unmoored World, unless you put a Portcrystal there.
