Flagging

 * Talk to NPC Aurben, in the Marketplace next to Cydonie, and get the quest Refuge in the Storm. You have to be at least level 13 to do this.
 * Then go to NPC Captain Agamon at the top of the Spire, he gets you to Siber Atoll. Jump down from the Airship, swim down into the water and enter the crevice to enter the Reaver's Refuge town area.
 * Find Reaver in his refuge and complete the Refuge in the Storm quest. He tells you that Sor'jek (formerly known as Tempest's Spine boss and Reaver's lieutenant) became a lich and must be defeated. Reaver gives you a fly buff to let you check around, find Ternathear's Inner Lair in the east upper area of the town.


 * Thear gives you a quest, The Essence of a Dragon, and asks you to collect gems found in the Exploration Zones. The gems drop out of rare encounter treasure chests in these zones. Once you get gems and turn them in, you never need to repeat this process. As of Module 9, you only need any three of these six gems. (Additional gems may be sold.)
 * Aussiredar's Gem (white) - Aussircaex's Valley
 * Iskaryte's Gem (blue) - Mount Reysalon
 * Ormaekrix's Gem (blue) - Soami Gardens
 * Sventusk's Gem (white) - Ruins of Gianthold
 * Thadargix's Gem (black) - Sands of Menechtarun
 * Vuthesjing's Gem (black) - Orchard of the Macabre

This is a timed quest, you have to defeat 4 elemental masters within 60 minutes, in order to stop Sor'jek's ritual. As soon as you defeat the 4th your quest completes, so if you lose in optional fight with undead Sor'jek thereafter, you cannot reenter to the quest, as your quest is already completed and it requires re-flagging.
 * Obtain Dragonshard Essences from Enter the Kobold, Prey on the Hunter and Monastery of the Scorpion. Turn them in to Toriavic, a NPC next to Thear. A complete set of Essences is required for each time you run the quest (reflagging).
 * Eberron Dragonshard Essence (white) - Prey on the Hunter
 * Khyber Dragonshard Essence (black) - Enter the Kobold
 * Siberys Dragonshard Essence (yellow) - Monastery of the Scorpion
