 * "Long ago, my people came to this desert seeking Ascension. We were met by strange snake-like creatures known as the Forgotten. My people immediately waged war on these creatures, thinking them mindless beasts. While out exploring one day, I came upon a lone Forgotten in Skyward Reach and was amazed to find out that I could converse with the creature. I learned that his name was Sariss Yassith and he told me many of the secrets of this place, secrets that could have helped myself but it was too late. You should seek out Sariss Yassith in Skyward Reach if you would find out more about these Forgotten.

Walkthrough
The shortest (and supposedly safest) route to Sariss Yassith is to exit Destiny's Gorge to Skyward Reach and keep to the left, almost straight south. Fighting your way through some Losaru and a couple of hydras you'll come to a teleporter that will bring you to the south across a small valley.

From now on, watch out for patrolling bands of hydras. With a little luck and careful maneuvering, you can avoid most of them. Go south, turn right through the gap in the cliff face, across a small plain and through another narrow pass. Sariss Yassith is on the hill to your right.
