Objectives

Use the  [Bark of the Walkers] to strengthen 3 Lothalor Ancients and then return to Earthwarden Grife at Agmar's Hammer.

• Lothalor Ancient strengthened (3)

Description

The ancients of the Lothalor Woods to the south are being corrupted by arcane wyrms... wyrms which have risen out of the ground!

Those that are already corrupted are deadly and of no use to us, but most can still be saved. Luckily, the treants of the woods seem to be immune to everything happening up there.

Ask the treants for their bark and when you get some, feed it to the ancients. This should strengthen them.

Now leave me to my business! I have to keep an eye on these apothecaries.

Completion

You have my thanks, <class>.

As soon as I am done observing what these disgusting apothecaries are up to, I'll head to the woods and see if I can convince these ancients to side with us.

Or, if nothing else, I'll convince them not to attack those that saved them!

Objectives

Find the  [Moonrest Gardens Plans] and return them to the Image of Archmage Aethas Sunreaver at Agmar's Hammer.

•  [Moonrest Gardens Plans]

Description

The Moonrest Gardens to the southwest were the final resting place of a group of Highborne elves. It was also a ley line nexus.

The blue dragonflight used a magical device they call a surge needle to destroy that nexus, freeing the power to redirect at their will.

I want more information and you are going to get it for me!

After the land was destroyed at the ruins, the ghosts of the Highborne rose up and decimated half of the mage hunters there. Go rifle their corpses for clues.

Rewards

Progress

You have returned. What did you uncover?

Completion

Curious, they seek an accord with the Ethereum. The ethereals could prove a powerful ally for Malygos and his madness.

This will not do!
