[edit] General

This quest is given by Zhureni at location (-1500, 1000) in the Drakkin outpost in Sunderock Springs.

“	You say, 'Hail, Zhureni' Zhureni is wrapped up in a heated argument, 'No, no, no. I refuse to accept that nothing can be done. The Reliquary is the foundation of our esteemed heritage and should be tended to as one would tend a garden . . . Yes, of course I realize the [inherent dangers] involved. That said, we [cannot give up hope] so easily. The temple can be returned to its glorious splendor with some creativity and hard work.' You say, 'What inherent dangers?' Zhureni says 'Err, I don't know where to start. There's the followers of Dyn`leth to avoid, stone statue guardians, drakes, the lava-with-life, various deadly traps, not to mention Dyn`leth himself. Despite all that, I still can't be convinced that restoring the temple is a lost cause.' Mazzie Ro`khelm says 'This is a fool's errand and you know it, Zhureni.' You say, 'We cannot give up hope.' Zhureni says 'That's the spirit! You see, Mazzie? Not everyone here is a pessimist.' Mazzie Ro`khelm mutters under her breath, 'Not everyone here misplaced their sanity.'	”

You say, 'Hail, Zhureni'

Zhureni is wrapped up in a heated argument, 'No, no, no. I refuse to accept that nothing can be done. The Reliquary is the foundation of our esteemed heritage and should be tended to as one would tend a garden . . . Yes, of course I realize the [inherent dangers] involved. That said, we [cannot give up hope] so easily. The temple can be returned to its glorious splendor with some creativity and hard work.'

You say, 'What inherent dangers?'

Zhureni says 'Err, I don't know where to start. There's the followers of Dyn`leth to avoid, stone statue guardians, drakes, the lava-with-life, various deadly traps, not to mention Dyn`leth himself. Despite all that, I still can't be convinced that restoring the temple is a lost cause.'

Mazzie Ro`khelm says 'This is a fool's errand and you know it, Zhureni.'

You say, 'We cannot give up hope.'

Zhureni says 'That's the spirit! You see, Mazzie? Not everyone here is a pessimist.'

Mazzie Ro`khelm mutters under her breath, 'Not everyone here misplaced their sanity.'

At this point you are assigned the task Tidying Up in the Temple.

The description within the task window reads:

“	When the spine of Antonica was raised by Solusek Ro, the violent shift in movement damaged the structure of the temple. Slabs of stone and marble rained down from the ceilings, littering the palace with debris. Some rooms collapsed completely, killing dragon and dragon-kin alike. Zhureni feels that the reliquary should be a shining tribute to Veeshan, not a crumbling graveyard. She would like you to start by cleaning out the debris in the temple.	”

[edit] Suggested Concurrent Tasks

Children of Flame OR A Daring Rescue - You'll be going near the Arbiter of Ash anyway, so if you're capable (and already have the task), kill him on the way.
Slicing Clay OR A Brim Task - again, you'll be passing all the mobs necessary for both of these tasks anyway.

[edit] Task Objectives

Objective Instructions	Status	Zone
Clean up 3 piles of debris	0/3	Ashengate, Reliquary of the Scale
Clean up 3 piles of dragonkin remains	0/3	Ashengate, Reliquary of the Scale
Speak to Zhureni	0/1	Sunderock Springs

[edit] Clean up 3 piles of debris

Both this step and the second step are available immediately upon accepting the task.

The piles of debris can be found in the west wing of Ashengate there are no more than two piles of debris up at any given time, and the respawn is at least 20 minutes. The piles of debris do not necessarily respawn in the same place.

They can appear anywhere from the crumbling towers early on in the west wing all the way to the broken ledges near the end of the wing. Having tracking will help tremendously as the piles are trackable. They appear as a small pile of rocks and blend in very well with the zone geography. Once you find them, you must destroy them. Nothing assists the piles, so if need be, you can stand in a safe spot and use ranged attacks/spells to destroy them.

[edit] Clean up 3 piles of dragonkin remains

Exactly like the piles of debris, there can be only two piles of remains up at any given time. It appears the remains only spawn in the broken ledges leading down to the end of the west wing.

These are much easier to spot than the debris piles as they are a small pile of bones. Again, similar to the debris, they are trackable once you find them you can sit in a safe spot and use range attacks/spells to destroy them.
