Retrieve the Akaviri relics for Kiseravi
I agreed to retrieve mysterious Akaviri relics from the Tomb of the Serpents so that a messenger named Kiseravi can share their secrets with the world.

Quick Walkthrough[edit]

The relics' locations
  1. Speak with Kiseravi and enter the Tomb of the Serpents.
  2. Retrieve Akaviri Relics.
  3. Speak with Kiseravi.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

To begin this quest, you can talk to Ghashugg on the path leading towards the tomb, who will direct you to Kiseravi. Gashugg tells you that he attempted to help Kiseravi, but she insisted that she couldn't leave without some relics sealed in the tomb.

Alternatively, you can talk to Kiseravi directly. She initially came here to loot the tomb and sell whatever was inside to the highest bidder. Kiseravi tells you about a disembodied voice that commanded her to instead retrieve the Akaviri relics within the tomb and bring them out to "share their secrets with the world." Unfortunately, Kiseravi does not believe that she would be able to survive the dangers within, so she asks you to aid her.

Once you enter the tomb, you will have to find and retrieve three of the Akaviri relics, which can be found in chests around the complex. However, you are not alone, as the Akaviri dead guard the chambers and will attempt to kill any outsiders foolish enough to take from them.

While collecting relics, it is more efficient to move in a clockwise direction through the tomb, as you can easily collect the Skyshard and the Anequina Fragment (if you are completing The Song of Kingdoms concurrently) on the way.

Once all three of the relics have been collected, return to Kiseravi outside the Tomb to hand them over and complete the quest.

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.
