The Lanterns in the Mists

From DDO Compendium
Season Links
Overview
The Mists of Ravenloft have begun to appear with greater frequency across the planes, and there are reports of mysterious humanoid or snake-like shapes whispering in these mists. Too many are disappearing across Faerun and Eberron, falling prey to these “Mist Stalkers”. There are even rumors of a great serpent seen in the mists. Lantern-bearing strangers calling themselves the Order of the Guardians claim to have a solution to this threat. Are you ready to heed their call?
Getting Started

To start the Lanterns in the Mists event, first enter the mists (labeled "Lanterns in the Mists") located in the Eberron Hall of Heroes. The mists are next to the fountain in the far Western wing. There is also an additional mists entrance outside the exit of the tutorial dungeon in Korthos Village.

Go into the mists and play the quest, "The Curse of the Five Fangs." Once you're done, exit the quest, then speak to the NPCs that have appeared next to the mists you used to enter to obtain a lantern. Note that these NPCs will not appear until after you've completed the quest! If you entered the quest through the mists on Korthos Island, you can either use the waypoint that appears inside the quest to exit to the Eberron Hall of Heroes or simply presss Recall to exit out back to Korthos.

There are two NPCs: Zuria Velamont and Barston Gelminedes. Valamont and Gelminedes offer magical Lanterns which slot into your Cosmetic Shield slot and allow you to see Mist Stalkers in any content outside of raids. You must have a Lantern equipped in order to see these enemies! Note that you can take multiple lanterns, but only the one that you currently have equipped will get charged as you play. As you defeat Mist Stalkers your chosen Lantern's Durability will increase. Once full, the Lantern can be turned into a Guardian for various cosmetic rewards which are then granted to your game account!
