Were Is the Messenger Walkthrough by Taled of Maj'Dul

Getting Started:

You must be a level 120 (or higher) crafter to obtain this quest.

Check your mail for a "Short-Term Job Offer" from Captain Ethan Darani. Accept the quest "Were is the Messenger: Local Living" and then fast travel or take a bell to the 'Svarni Expanse', the entrance zone of the Vetrovia expansion.

Talk to Representative Mairen at /way 640.14 7.29 529.25

Quest 1: 'Were Is the Messenger: Local Living'

She sends you to speak with her daughter, Alghoza, who is located in the village of Kamapor at /way 111.7, 5.9, 387.3

You talk a bit about the local area, and you are introduced to a Kinnahma (centaur) named Arpita Goyal, who is a batik artisan. Arpita suggests that the best way to learn batik is by doing, and sends you out to harvest materials so that you can learn the basic process.

A) Harvest various materials in Vetrovia:

• 15 Narra Wood (Wood node)
• 20 Amsonia Roots (Root node)
• 20 Mahngavi Mango (Bush node)
• 20 Forlorn Ore (Coalesced Stone node)
• 15 Star Diopside (Soft metal node)

B) Craft the tightly woven fabric, batik canting and bright fabric dye using the materials that you just harvested, along with celestial fuels from the fuel merchant. Then you will use those materials to make the batik fabric. (Very abbreviated batik notes for those curious: The Tightly Woven Fabric can be painted with wax designs by using the Batik Canting. Once the designs are drawn, you then drop it into one of the dyeing pools in the area that is filled with a Bright Fabric Dye to create the Batik Weaving.)

The crafting station in Kamapor is at /way 100.75 12.86 495.57 and the fuel merchant is directly beside it.

You will need:

• 10 Astral Filament
• 5 Astral Coal
• 5 Astral Candle

C) You then try to check in with Alghoza's mother, Representative Mairen at /way 640.14 7.29 529.25 only to find she isn't there. You speak to Rithsar in this same area instead.
