Description
My people have subsisted on the Nightwell for millennia. Ancient mana is our lifeblood - without it, we become... well, you saw them out there.
<Thalyssra holds her flask aloft, gently shaking free the last precious drops.>
I'm afraid I have been rather reckless today.
Already, my senses are dulling. Without magic to feed upon, I will turn.
Please... find me something to feed upon... anything...

Progress
<Thalyssra's eyes have dulled and her body is shaking uncontrollably.>
Completion
<Thalyssra takes the crystals with a trembling hand.>
Notes
The six crystals are around the broken column on the central platform of Shal'Aran. Upon approaching it, Keeper Selentia spawns. She is initially invulnerable, so don't bother attacking her right away. Instead, kill the two Arcane Tethers that are channeling energy beams into her.
Periodically she will summon Ancient Keepers. You can mostly ignore them and go straight for Selentia.
- Selentia wails, calling forth ancient keepers!
Upon killing both Arcane Tethers:
- The tethers have broken. Selentia is vulnerable!
Now you can kill her normally, even as a melee class, although she appears to be flying high in the air.
Completing this quest awards the "Nightfall" criterion of 
[Nightfallen But Not Forgotten].
