[edit] Walkthrough
First, make sure you have the Barradin Family Urn.
You will need to get to Diessa Lowlands in order to reach the Flame Temple Corridor where the ashes are located. It is easier to start from the Grendich Courthouse, but if you have not been there yet, start from Piken Square and get to Diessa Lowlands from The Breach. The entrance to the Flame Temple Corridor is in the northeast corner of the Diessa Lowlands across the large tar pit.
Once you arrive at the Flame Temple Corridor, you will need to fight several groups of Charr to get to the altar where Althea's ashes are. You will have four Ascalon Strikers helping you, but they aren't very strong. Just work on clearing a single path towards the altar. The altar is guarded by a large group of charr, so be careful. After you have cleared the Charr, click on the altar and the Barradin Family Urn will turn into an Urn of Althea's Ashes.
An alternative to killing the large group of Charr at the altar would be to just run up and click on the altar instead of fighting the Charr.
[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Duke Barradin
- "I have been thinking about this story you told me of my daughter's ghost. I fear she cannot rest until her ashes are recovered and properly interred. Please go to the Flame Temple Corridor and gather Althea's ashes. Bring them back to me so I can lay her to rest. You'll have my gratitude."
- Accept: "I'll take care of it."
- Decline: "I'm sorry. I have other things I must do."
- When asked about quest: "I know that what I ask of you may not even be possible, but I'd be grateful if you'd try. Bring me Althea's ashes so she can rest in peace."
[edit] Reward dialogue
Duke Barradin
- "Althea's ashes... You have put this father's heart at ease. I thank you."
[edit] Notes
- Having The Titan Source active will make this quest much more difficult.
- It is possible to complete the quest by buying the ashes from another player.
- To collect the ashes make sure you have the Barradin Family Urn in your inventory. If you lost the urn then talk to Duke Barradin and he will give you another.
