Wisdom of the Druids

Requirements

 * Favor of the Gods to make the Avatar of Dwayna appear.

Objectives

 * Travel through the Sage Lands and await the druids at the base of the waterfall.

Reward

 * 500 Experience

Walkthrough
First you must make the Avatar of Dwayna appear to take the quest. The world must have the Favor of the Gods for that to happen. You will see when this is the case from the green messages in your chat window or from the fact that the Statue of Dwayna is standing up and glowing. Go up to her statue and type "/kneel" in the chat box. She will appear and you can take the quest.

It's preferable to start out from The Wilds. The path is shorter and pretty much straight. From Druid's Overlook you will have to take a significant detour to the west when your path to the north is blocked; a detour that will practically take you to The Wilds doorstep.

Once at the spot where the quest marker leads you, you will be attacked by successive groups of Maguuma Spiders. The Druids will then appear after they are defeated. Watch their ritual and talk to the Ancient Druid Spirit when they are finished.

Initial dialogue
Avatar of Dwayna
 * "Child, Dwayna senses within you the impatience that all too often plagues the mortal mind. She now offers you an opportunity to glimpse a deeper serenity to which you may aspire. The druids of Maguuma, holy beings who surrendered their mortal flesh to become one with the jungle, will soon gather beneath a waterfall not far from here. Search through the Sage Lands for their meeting place and await them there."

Reward dialogue
Ancient Druid Spirit
 * ''"It is not often that we allow mortals to witness our rituals, but we see in you the seeds of the divine. To be divine is to realize that we are all one.  That the self is an illusion.  Through this do you understand your own immortality.  Through this are you freed from the illusions of the flesh.


 * Do not rush your understanding of these mysteries. Allow them to take root and mature gradually within you as the seedling in the soil."
