==Quest Intro==
The world shifts into darkness, and for a long moment you can see and hear nothing. At all. Then you feel, rather than see, a wave of corrupt magic echoing from the distant West. The magic pulls your vision steadily Westward, until you clearly see the [[Great Barrier]], roiling and seething with the curse placed upon it. Your eyes are drawn to a very visible tear within the Barrier, allowing a glimpse of the blighted lands beyond.

{{QuestLoot|a|blackened battle odaj affixed with pauldrons sculpted to resemble crow heads}}
{{QuestLoot|a|field plate cobbled together from mismatched pieces}}
{{QuestLoot|a|piecemeal leather armor discolored with age}}


A lone [[Agehrilor|Prydaen girl]] wages war against the countless undead that have managed to escape through the lingering rift in the enormous wall of magic.
===Clothing===
{{QuestLoot|c|bloodstained gold linen tabard embroidered with the shariza of Tenemlor}}
{{QuestLoot|c|black suede tunic dangling a row of bear claws and sun-bleached bone shards along the yoke}}

{{QuestLoot|c|tattered Pr'ysin held by a tarnished silver brooch with an empty setting}}
{{QuestLoot|c|short leather hunting skirt beaded with muted black onyx}}


As quickly as it started, everything begins to return to normal again. As the vision fades, you hear a soft voice say, "Please, Easterner. Help us."
===Containers===
{{QuestLoot|c|polished flamewood case overlayed with golden filigree}}
{{QuestLoot|i|golden filigreed key|c=y}}
{{QuestLoot|c|mottled leather war belt fastened by a jagged bit of stone}}


A slight pain twinges in your forehead, and you hear a [[Lyras|voice]] hiss softly in your head, sounding dim and distant. "You are not welcome here." The hiss is accompanied by a flash of a female Prydaen, her mane in wild tangles mussed with dry leaves and her clothes all in thin rags. But most unsettling of all are her glowing yellow eyes, which burn with an intense hatred reserved by the dead for the living.

As she hisses, you get the feeling that whatever inhabits the unfortunate corpse is distinctly *not* [[Prydaen]]. The vision begins to fade away again, along with the mild headache.

===Magical===
{{QuestLoot|j|granite ring shaped like a twisted claw-tipped hand}}
{{QuestLoot|j| brilliant sunstone amulet centered with a blue gold disc}}

You thought she was gone for good.

You thought that she was finally and truly destroyed.

You were wrong.

Description

A cry of help has come from the far west, further than even Forfedhdar. What was once the wild highlands of the Prydaen is now the wasteland left behind by a long and brutal war. Too few in number to finish the war themselves, the last of the Claw of Tenemlor will rely on you to rid the land of the scourge of undead once and for all, and restore both life and peace to a dead land. From cleansing the land of its corruption, to aiding the Claw in their work, your help is needed. And ultimately, the last remnant of Lyras waits...for you.

Do you have the courage to go Beyond the Barrier?

Aid the Claw of Tenemlor in the last fight against the corruption that Lyras wrought on the far west. Battle the undead, travel to the Sunfell Hub, and put an end to the Remnant of Lyras once and for all! This quest lasts roughly four hours, and has a maximum size of ten people.

EARLY BIRD BONUS! All questers who participate in one of the first thirty (30) quest runs at the introductory price will be able to choose between two very special limited edition items that will never, ever be offered again!

HOLIDAY SPECIAL (2014)! Successfully completing the quest during December 2014 will give participants their choice of one of three limited edition, epic Siegery Figurines!
