Chasing the Wind

Chasing the Wind begins the "Bonds Renewed" chapter of the Ohn'ahran Plains storyline.

Listen to Scout Tomul's report.

• Report heard
• Talk to Khanam Matra Sarest
• Taivan ridden (Optional)
• Meet Khanam Matra Sarest outside the Horn of Drusahl

We must take a moment to pause and consider our strategy.

We need Ohn'ahra's blessing to sound the Horn of Drusahl and summon the green dragons. Without their aid, we cannot win this war. The Nokhud already outnumber the other clans, and their forces are now bolstered by the Primalists. We must therefore find Ohn'ahra before the Nokhud can launch their final attack and encircle Maruukai.

I will send all of our scouts to find her at once. I only hope we can find her in time.

You will receive:

• 1,150 XP

We are too late. The Nokhud have overrun the Horn of Drusahl and slaughtered my people.

This act of aggression will not go unanswered.

On accept, Scout Tomul spawns at the entrance to the chamber. She runs past Khansguard Akato, who salutes her. Upon stopping in the doorway, she gives a salute of her own.

Talk to Sarest:

• The Horn of Drusahl is one of our most sacred relics. We must assume Balakar has abandoned our ways. He will destroy it to prevent us from calling the green dragons. If we are to have any hope of saving it, we must make haste.

• Since you will not keep up with us on those two legs of yours, we have prepared a mount for you. Taivan is our largest bakar. He can carry you swiftly to the Horn, or you can take that tamed drake of yours and meet us there.

The player can choose to head directly to the Horn on their own, or ride on Taivan to hear more exposition. Taivan sits waiting in his usual spot in front of Healer Selbekh in the city center:

• <Taivan tilts his head to the side, his tongue dangling.>

Taivan starts loping, taking the road to the east. Sarest, Tomul, Akato, Hojin, and Jebotai appear, running down the hill from the krutal, to gallop in procession alongside Taivan. Along the way, they have a conversation with the player.

Upon approaching the Horn, the centaur and Taivan leave the road to instead hide behind a small outcropping west of the village. Sarest, Tomul, and the khansguard take up positions and the player automatically dismounts from Taivan (who despawns).
