His location is difficult to see from ground level. Look for a large raised hut. He is inside facing away from the entrance.

In case you are wondering why you can't pick up the quest it's because you need to be at least level 30.

Comment by Shadelis

To start questing in Spires of Arak as at this moment in time, at max level, do quest The Crone

Comment by mackswell

Running into a bug where talking to Reshad doesnt continue the quest and simply closes the dialogue. Tried relogging, restarting, disabling addons, abandoning and re trying quest, and nothing works. Whenever I press "Shadows gather"... the dialogue closes. Anyone else had this problem? I want to finish my Phoenix Wishwing and I need this quest done.

Speak the password to Reshad in Skettis.

Description

My people flee our homeland in droves. I sell trinkets to ease the journey.

But I see that you are not interested in trinkets... No, what you seek are answers.

Skettis lies just ahead. Once a great city built by Terokk as a refuge for the unwanted. Now a ruined slum.

An old storyteller lives there - a scrollkeeper named Reshad. Find him and speak these words: "Shadows gather." He will know you are a friend.

Now go. Your presence is bad for business.
