Walk Through

 * 1) Talk to Kraytuss Nallah in Stonehold at 68.8N, 21.7W to flag for this quest.
 * 2) Head to the Serpent Burial Grounds at 67.6N, 25.3W (safe drop).
 * 3) From the drop, continue north, into a large room with a locked door (800 diff).
 * 4) Pick the door (Lockpick skill, diff 800 before debuff), and jump across the acid pit.
 * 5) * Note: If you do not have lockpick, you can take the side hallway for a longer, more difficult route that ends up at the Warding Crystal.
 * 6) Continue forward and work your way down to a room containing a Warding Crystal.
 * 7) Kill the Warding Crystal and take the door that opens to the East.

 * 10) * Tip 1: If possible, try to draw agro from the mob below, and imp/vuln them before jumping down.

 * Kraytuss Nallah tells you, "Be a good little citizen now, would you, and take a look around : 67.6N, 25.3W and see what you can find out. I'll gladly reward you if it means these lowly peons of the town will stop going on and on about the "big scary mist"."
