Echoes of Aranea

Echoes of Aranea is a solo dungeon that becomes available for entry to players at level 65.

These two quests could be both accepted before entering Echoes and both can be completed with one run. You can enter Castle Aranea by speaking to Echo Arcana Curator Murakan in Highwatch or Gadin in Veritas Vault.

Dungeon takes you back in time and to expedition to Black Land and to Castle Aranea. Follow Syona, Ribina, and Randun to learn why the Dark Continent Expedition is here. It gives background lore about the times before Imperator Dakuryon rise to rule the Northern Arun.
