Notes:

This task is given as you approach the central hub of the zone, and starts with a location update closer that gives you a stone tablet. To learn more you go to each of the four pillars and speak with a evanglist of that essence, you can do them in any order.

Arcane is the northeast pillar. Chat with Selulian and follow the dialog (ending with 'favor') to the point you are told to go to the Nature pillar (southwest) and kill some of the flora to get three vines. The vines are automatically put on your cursor upon killing any of the tree or bush creatures (about 50% of kills give a vine). Once you have three go back to Arcane and go up four levels (clicking the light colored hexs go up) and roam around for a location trigger gives you the tabard pattern. Then two levels under the library (or two levels above the entrance) one of the side rooms has a glowing blue orb, click that to open the infuser. Place the three vines and the pattern inside to create a Tabard of Melretia's Order completing this portion of the task.

Nature is the southwest pillar. Chat with Il`Rator and follow the dialog (ending with 'request') to the point you are told to go to the Arcane pillar (northeast) and kill some of the wards or guardians. The lifeless ore are automatically put on your cursor upon killing any of them (about 50% of kills give an ore). Once you have three go back to Nature and go up five levels and roam around for a location trigger gives you the tabard pattern. Then two levels under the library (or three levels above the entrance) one of the side rooms has a glowing green bubbly thing, click that to open the infuser. Place the three ores and the pattern inside to create a Tabard of Anriella's Order completing this portion of the task.

Black is the southeast pillar. Chat with Wrakt and follow the dialog (ending with 'favor') to the point you are told to go to the Light pillar (northhwest) and kill some of the wisps and rabbits. The purity orbs are automatically put on your cursor upon killing any of them (about 50% of kills give an orb). Once you have three go back to Black and go up four levels and roam around for a location trigger gives you the crest pattern. Then two levels under the library (or two levels above the entrance) one of the side rooms has a glowing shadowy thing, click that to open the infuser. Place the three orbs and the pattern inside to create a Crest of Fal`Kaa's Order completing this portion of the task.

Light is the northwest pillar. Chat with Il`Nendale and follow the dialog (ending with 'demonstrate') to the point you are told to go to the Black pillar (southeast) and kill some of the shades and horrors. The orbs of darkness are automatically put on your cursor upon killing any of them (about 50% of kills give an orb). Once you have three go back to Light and go up four levels and roam around for a location trigger gives you the crest pattern. Then two levels under the library (or two levels above the entrance) one of the side rooms has a glowing white bubbly thing, click that to open the infuser. Place the three orbs and the pattern inside to create an Erion's Crest completing this portion of the task.

With all four portions complete, return to the center and the stone will tell you to walk the paths garbed in the gear you just made. You will need to traverse all 12 portions of the paths (not including the single path that leads to center from the ground), but there are two rules: You must be wearing the piece of gear dedicated to the pillar you are traveling to and from, and you can not go onto a path you just finished. For example, to go from center to Light, you must be wearing Erion's Crest. Once there you can not take the same path back to center. To then go from Light to Nature, you must be wearing both Erion's Crest and the Tabard of Anriella. It is not possible to cross all paths without crossing some twice, but as long as you don't cross the same path twice in a row you are fine.

Here is one possible solution, starting from center:

  1. Put on Erior and Anriella
  2. Center to Light (nw) - 1
  3. Light to Nature (sw) - 3
  4. Nature to Center - 4
  5. Put on Fal`Kaa and Melretia
  6. Center to Black (se) - 5
  7. Black to Arcane (ne) - 7
  8. Arcane to Center - 8
  9. Center to Black (se)
  10. Put on Fal`Kaa and Anriella
  11. Black to Nature (sw) - 10
  12. Put on Erion and Anriella
  13. Nature to Light (nw)
  14. Put on Erion and Melretia
  15. Light to Arcane (ne) - 12

If you mess up, the counter goes to 0 and you start the paths over. Once you complete them, return to center and step onto the rock with the statue. You'll be prompted to say which side you pledge yourself to, I said "I pledge myself to none" and it completed, I don't know what happens if you pick a side.
