==Objectives==

Complete the [[Trial of Frost]] by gathering 20 Essence of Ice without getting hit by Frostburn.
The '''Lost Isles''' is a new zone featured in ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm]]''. The chain of islands is located south of [[Azshara]] and north of [[Durotar]]. The [[goblin (playable)|goblins]] of the [[Bilgewater Cartel]] have shipwrecked on the Lost Isles after fleeing the devastation of [[Kezan]].

You know, some of my apprentices have called me cold hearted. I always say though, I shall not let the temperature of my body parts stand in the way of true learning.
{{Cat-section}}
 
The preconception that any goblin would sell their best friend for a fistful of gold is not entirely unfounded: many of them probably would and some actually do.
 
   
  +
To reach the Trial of Frost, touch the Frost crystal to open a portal. Once there, the goal is quite simple - gather the little floaty ice orb thingies.
The truth is that quite a few goblins combine a shrewd business sense with a certain level of... moral flexibility. For example, after the cataclysm reawakened a volcano on their home island one of the goblins' trade princes realized that there was good money to be made in offering panicked goblins a ticket to safety on his ship, taking their life savings - and then selling them into slavery. A clever plan, until it (and the ship) fell apart in a naval crossfire between an Alliance fleet and a lone Horde ship. The shipwreck's survivors washed ashore on the Lost Isles off the coast of Kalimdor, where they discover that the island's dense jungles harbor many mysteries and more than a few unpleasant surprises.

To counter the simple, the rotating Frostburns may put back your progress, as it were. If you want to be fancy, you can use the rune traps to jump over them as they rotate by. Neat, eh?
===Other preview notes===
 
A race of intelligent monkeys mines [[Kaja'mite]] somewhere on the Isles<ref>http://wow.incgamers.com/blog/comments/blizzcon-2009-worgen-and-goblin-quests-spoilers/P2</ref>. Some of the monkeys seem to be enslaved by mysterious pygmies.

==Rewards==
The orc ship, ''[[Draka's Fury]]'', shipwrecked, too, losing their cargo to the Alliance. [[Aggra]], ''Draka's Fury'''s captain, sends the goblins to recover the cargo, who is no other than [[Thrall]] himself.

You will receive: {{coppercost|1000}} (or {{coppercost|840}} at max level)

==Completion==
The wildlife of the Lost Isles seem somewhat prehistoric, because of the fact that never-seen species of raptors, dinosaurs and dodo-like creatures will inhabit these long-forgotten lands. The raptors and dinosaurs seem to have unique new models, shown on Blizzard-made concept art. The Isles are covered with exotic forests, bamboo and a new species of palm trees.

Brilliant. You certainly don't let cold feet stop you. Or cold any part for that matter!
