What to do
Description
I think they would make great guardians, when they get older... with the proper training. However, it seems some of my trainees have wandered off. There are so many things nearby that could harm them! Between the walking sandstorms and angry plants... it's been safer to hide out here and look at night. I'm so exhausted! Could you take this flute with you and play them a little tune? It will remind them to come back to me.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

<This little flute, while dusty, appears to be well cared for. Its owner can't be too far away.>
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Just a Nip
My tough-guys-in-training are quick learners! They do seem to get a bit... bitey... when they're grouchy, though. Too many, and I start to get a little light-headed. The nearby atrivax plants have a medicinal gel. It is great to treat fresh wounds and nullify venom. They don't like sharing it.
