Sacrificial Flame, Basin, and Egg
According to Deetum-Jas, a group of Naga extremists in Xi-Tsei called Sul-Xan are capturing and sacrificing innocent people. His client wants me to infiltrate the temple and destroy the extremists' ritual tools, then return for my reward.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Deetum-Jas about daily jobs.
  2. (optional) Get more insight on the Sul-Xan's sacrificial tools by speaking to Nalulie.
  3. Destroy the Sacrificial Flame, the Sacrificial Basin, and the Sacrificial Egg in Xi-Tsei.
  4. Talk to Deetum-Jas to get your reward.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Receive the quest from the daily job broker, Deetum-Jas, in Leyawiin, and he'll direct you to Xi-Tsei. It has been overrun by dreadful naga called the Sul-Xan. They're thought to worship chaos itself, and they perform murderous sacrifices. Rockgrove Argonians have already fallen prey to them.

You can choose to speak with Nalulie to get more information before heading out. She wants to stop the murderous schemes of the Sul-Xan by destroying their sacrificial tools: an unfertilized Argonian egg, a stone basin made during the Time of Dust, and a flame made with special herbs.

Head to Xi-Tsei in Blackwood by using the Stonewastes Wayshrine. Take the dirt path to the west. You will eventually cross a swampy area and see the stone structure marking the entrance to the delve.

Once inside, you will need to destroy the three ritual tools. Cross the exterior area to enter the xanmeer proper. At the first intersection, head east to reach to Sacrificial Flame in a room with two pools and douse it. Continue east to another room with two pools to destroy the sacrificial Basin by smashing it. Continue through the room and up the hall until you reach the next intersection. Take the southern path to a room with a door on the south wall that leads outside. Cross the clearing to a staircase that leads up to the boss area. Destroy the Sacrificial Egg by smashing it.

When you're done, return to Deetum-Jas in Leyawiin to get your reward: a Leyawiin Reward Coffer and some gold.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
