Tormented By the Past

Take the Crystal of Zin-Malor to Lake Kel'Theril in Winterspring and find a highborne spirit that will speak to you.
Crystal of Zin-Malor
Provided Item:
Crystal of Zin-Malor

Description

<name>, I weep for what has happened in the past. Like this crystal, the elves, as a race, have been shattered. I do not know if the pieces will ever again be reunited into one, but my sorrow has been eased by being able to help you with this one small task.

We must not forget the past, <name>...

Please take the Crystal of Zin-Malor back to Lake Kel'Theril. You must find a highborne spirit that realizes the error of what was done so long ago. Show the spirit that we have made things right again.

The coords are 56,44. They are the Ruins of Kel'Theril shown on your map. The Remorseful Highborne wanders inside.

Upon completion of this quest, the Remorseful Highborne yells: "Cursed spirits! Let go of the past! The Crystal of Zin-Malor no longer binds you!" - and the local undead become friendly for a minute or two. Nice! :)

When you talk to highborne spirit behind the building, you see yellow ? above her head.
After talking you can leave the place safe for some time. Alle spirits around you are suddenly green for 20 seconds or so, so you can walk easy and safe away without aggro risk :)

Equip is not needed. Just talk.

I found the spirit saw that i was supposed to be able to speak to her but could not. I equipped the crystal, it drained my health, killed me, I returned ressurected then I could speak to her. I don't know if this is just a bug for me or if it will happen again. Just FYI
