Dialogue
 * "Greetings, . Someone has been looking for you. Kormir, spearmarshal of the illustrious Sunspears, has traveled here from the lands of Elona to the south. She has been asking most diligently after you. Kormir awaits you at the Lion's Gate. Lionguard Bedo will grant you entrance to speak with her."


 * Accept: "I will find this Kormir and speak with her."
 * Reject: "I have more pressing matters to attend to."

Intermediate Dialogue 1 (Lionguard Figo)
 * "Ah good,, you were found. A rather important guest has arrived from Elona, and she has been asking about you.  She awaits you in Lion's Gate."

Intermediate Dialogue 2 (Kormir)
 * "Ahai, . I am Spearmarshal Kormir, leader of the Sunspears from the lands of Elona to the southeast. Our Order has been entrusted with defending the three provinces of Elona... Istan, Kourna, and Vabbi... from those who would seek to bring our lands to ruin. An evil has risen in Elona; a darkness we cannot hope to fight alone. I come here now in search of heroes who will help us battle this evil, which surely seeks to devour us all.


 * I speak of Nightfall, a darkness that threatens Elona and will envelop all our lands if it is not stopped. Even now its tendrils stretch out to bring ruin to Lion's Arch! I can sense it! If you are the caliber of hero I seek, prove it by defeating this evil here in your home. Make haste, though. Your own lands are in great peril! Are you prepared to begin the defense of Lion's Arch?"

Intermediate Dialogue 3 (Kormir)
 * "You have now witnessed the darkness that threatens to destroy us all and triumphed over it. I fear that the leader of the Elonian province of Kourna, Varesh Ossa, is responsible. I ask of you, come to Elona and help the Sunspears defeat here before she brings ruin down upon us all! Finish your important tasks here in Tyria, and return to me when you are ready. I will then arrange travel to Elona so you may help us make a stand against this evil.


 * If you have completed your business here in Tyria and wish to join the Sunspears in the defense of Elona, I have a ship prepared to leave immediately. Are you ready to travel to Elona and battle against the coming darkness?"

Reward Dialogue
 * "Kormir told me to expect you, . We Sunspears are indeed lucky to have such great heroes volunteer to join our battle against the evil that threatens Elona. There is much that must be done to prepare you for the battle that awaits us. When you're ready, I will direct you on your way."

Walkthrough
Start from Lion's Arch, filling your party with human players or henchmen. Talk to Lionguard Figo, who will allow you passage into Lion's Gate. Talk to Kormir there, and she will transport you and your party to a demon-infested Lion's Arch.

Upon entering Lion's Arch, you are greeted by a flickering purple Chaos Rift portal. Scanning around, you will see members of the Lionguard being attacked by a variety of monsters:


 * 22 Grasp of Insanity
 * 18 Scythe of Chaos
 * 24 Wrathful Storm
 * 20 Torment Claw

To destroy the Chaos Rifts, simply stand nearby it for about 10 seconds (a red bar will show the progress). Destroy all four and you'll automatically (after a 30 second countdown) be taken back to Lion's Gate where Kormir will teleport you to Elona. After a short cinematic, you will find yourself in Sun Docks where Seamarshal Bendro waits for you. Talk to him for the reward.

Note that there are only three or four mobs you will have to kill in order to make it to all the Chaos Rifts and complete the quest, if you avoid the wandering groups. As such, this quest is trivial for a competent group of six level 20s, and it can be completed with fewer. If you are attempting this quest with henchmen (which are level 10 in Lion's Arch), it is even more important to avoid the wandering groups, and to be careful not to let the henchmen aggro groups you aren't prepared to fight. It is very helpful to leave both Stefan and Little Thom out of your party, because they tend to run into battle and die very quickly. Instead, you can rely on the level 15 Lionguard Sentries for their brawn, because they do not run ahead like the warrior henchmen do. Don't forget to call targets so your henchmen focus on the same foe, and flag them away from battle when necessary. Eliminate your foes one by one, and their superior levels and devastating spells won't have as much time to whittle your group down to death.

Trivia

 * During the quest, Brother Bilshan will say " It's the end of the world as we know it!". This is the name of a song by R.E.M, an American rock band. He can also be heard crying, "Repent, for the end is nigh!"
 * Some traders may shout "For Adelbern!" even though they are Krytan.
 * There is a misspelling in the german translation of the third dialogue. She sais "Ich fürchtem dass..." which should be "Ich fürchte dass..."
