A Test of Courage

Help Zosime retrieve Korinna's Allaying Crook.

• Bell of Remembrance rung (Optional)
• Korinna's Allaying Crook

I'm still new and haven't passed all of my Aspirant tests. But, I have an idea.

There is an artifact called Korinna's Allaying Crook. Korinna was a powerful Ascended who tamed the creatures of Bastion eons ago. Her staff has the power to prevent more creatures from succumbing to a savage, anima-starved state.

However, the artifact is protected and only one with great courage can retrieve it. I bet you could,.

Go on ahead. The staff is in the reliquary to the north. I'll join you there shortly.

You will receive:

• 8,500 XP
• +100 reputation with The Ascended

Were you able to retrieve the crook?

I told you she can be quite the troublemaker. Ugh, Kala!

Two Anima-Starved Wyrms fly into the chamber

Once dealt with, they're followed by three Anima-Starved Cloudfeathers.

Finally Vyrm the Ravenous enters the reliquary.

As the barrier is brought low, Kala swoops in and grabs the crook, only to fly off.

There is an artifact held here which will prevent more creatures succumbing to this savage state.

Go on ahead, the artifact rests in a small cavern directly north of here. I'll join you shortly.

Did you retrieve it?
