History of The Ascendant

Overview

The Ascendant is part of Micah-10's The Final Days quest series in The Final Shape. Visit Micah-10 at the Arbor of Light in the Lost City to receive the quest; the four objectives in the current imported quest record follow that pickup. The quest searches the Dreaming City for the lost Ghost Akasha.

Walkthrough

1. Pick up the quest from Micah-10 at the Arbor of Light.
2. Search for Ghost telemetry in the mission Dark Monastery in the Dreaming City.
3. Search the Dreaming City for Akasha; she is in The Confluence by the door to The Shattered Realm, near statues of segmented Scorn.
4. Return to the Arbor of Light to restore the Ghost.
5. Speak to Micah-10 to discuss next steps. The telemetry reports Hive activity through the Ascendant Plane, tied to Xivu Arath.
