The Old Ways

The Old Ways is an optional side quest, offered by the stable master Klystere when players first arrive at Aspirant's Rest for Walk the Path, Aspirant during the Bastion storyline.

Collect an Elysian Thread, 4 Cloudstrider Pelts, and 12 Larion Plumes.

• Elysian Thread
• Cloudstrider Pelt (4)
• Larion Plume (12)

You there! Might I ask your help?

I must confess, with the lack of new souls arriving, our supplies have dwindled. We lack the means to clothe arrivals in proper kyrian attire.

Before the forging of the centurions, aspirants trained against the native wildlife. Perhaps there is another way these beasts can prove useful.

If you collect materials from the cloudstriders and larions nearby, we can use them to ensure our new arrivals look the part.

Oh, and some thread from Mirene, if you would!

You will also receive:

• 6,800 XP
• +100 reputation with The Ascended

How goes the hunt?

These are perfect! Go in service, always.

On accept:

• Say

Purchase one Elysian Thread for from Caretaker Mirene, the innkeeper nearby:

• Say

Plenty of wildlife to kill in the area.

The quest was named An Act of Service.

Oh, an outsider! Could you aid me with something?

• Description

We weren't sure if new souls would ever arrive again. We lack the materials to even clothe arrivals in proper kyrian attire!

Before the creation of the Centurions we would train against the beasts of Bastion, but they can still prove useful.

If you could collect materials from the lighthoofs and larions nearby, this humble aspirant would like to ensure our new brethren look the part.

Oh, and some new thread from Mirene if you don't mind!
