Return to the Tursh area; the easiest way to do this is to Recall. Once you have recalled, head back to the Storehouse Guardpost to turn in your quest.

Recalling

Recalling allows you to escape dangerous dungeons or travel across long distances to a destination you have previously visited. While it is a useful tool for returning to quest NPCs or town areas, the 15 second cast time and 1 hour refresh time make it more useful for out of combat travel. Your character starts off soulbound near Tursh, and recalling will bring you there.

By now you are probably at or nearing level 7. This is where you will meet the death penalty. If you died before level 7, you respawned at the altar with your gear and experience intact. After level 7, though, you will respawn only with soulbound gear and you will take an experience hit. 

1. Head to the Storehouse Mill. Enter the Storehouse and fight your way down to the Repository Infesters.
2. Kill Repository Infesters (level 6, aggressive, 2 dots) until Rusten's Locket drops.

• Western Watch Greatsword (Great Sword, 6-9 damage, 3.25 speed, +6 HP)

Turn this quest in to the Rustens and speak with Marshal Rusten to receive the quest More Going On. Note that, even if you didn't receive the locket, you should grab this quest from Marshal.

 While in town, find the building with the "Bank of Tursh" side out front. Head in - and sure enough, it's a bank! If your inventory has started to feel cramped, this is the perfect place to fix it- talking to the banker, Bethany Rusten, will allow you access to 50 more slots of storage as well as coin storage. Note that the item storage is common to this continent, and on Kojan or Qalia you will have different storage access, but the coin is shared between all three continents' banks.
