Tanlorin received an invitation to meet with the Gardener, the leader of the Garland Ring. Tan hopes there's been progress in the search for answers after the Ceythalmor attack on them and their friends.
Quick WalkthroughEdit
Detailed WalkthroughEdit
NotesEdit
- During the Sunhold portion of this quest, it is imperative that Tanlorin remain your active companion for the entire time. Dismissing them, summoning another companion, summoning a banker or merchant assistant or even swimming for too long will cause you to be instantly teleported out of Sunhold and back to the beach in Auridon.

|
|
| The message from the Gardener included some sort of riddle. I should talk to Tanlorin and see what they think it means.

|
| We found an illusory bird near the landmark of woven branches depicted in the sketch. I should interact with it and discover our next clue.

|
| Tanlorin contacted Hyacinth using one of those magicka lattices. They want me to talk with Hyacinth and tell him about Snapdragon's arrest and our plan to go to Sunhold.

|
|
| We entered the Ceythalmor prison in Sunhold. We should look for any information about their operation here and where they're holding Snapdragon.

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.
