Writs
From Vgtact

[edit] Overview
Writs are extended Quests that provide a reward in the form of a Facet that can be exchanged for Gems that can in turn be used to adorn a Mask.
As of the 24.01.08 patch, Gems and Masks have been released.
Writs start from each of the three major Prestige Centers of each continent. Some writs will just have you talk to a number of different people in and around that city, whilst others will take you on a long journey to another Prestige Center with a variety of stops along the way to Parley. Every writ currently requires a total of 5 Parleys.
No writ currently requires you to travel to a different continent.
Besides the Facets that you are given as reward for the writ, you will also gain faction with the city from which you accepted the writ, and may also gain or lose faction or prestige with other locations and factions on the same continent.
See the Category Writs for an alternate listing of all writs.
