The three places you need to go are marked with a cave entrance on the zone map, and are just north of Amberpine Lodge. The heart is the east-most cave, the limb is the middle cave, and the tears is the west most cave. Grizzlemaw (the huge broken tree in the middle of the zone with all the Furblogs) is not where you need to be.

What to do
Description
When the tree Vordrassil fell, its hollow remains grew roots deep into the ground. I want you to go north of here to the three locations where the trunk shattered and go as far beneath the ground as you can. You'll find them west of Grizzlemaw. Use this orb once you get there to get an imprint of the energy surrounding the area. If we're to heal the land, we must first find out what caused Vordrassil to fail as a world tree all those years ago.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Thane of Voldrune
Now that you've captured the flame-imbued talismans and weakened Voldrune's defenses, we can strike at its leader, Thane Torvald Eriksson. The thane's favorite mount is an unruly proto-drake he calls Flamebringer.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Possible Link
The furbolgs that live east of here are more aggressive and bestial than the ones we're used to. Our forces have squared off with them more than once, and the survivors always speak of a dark, slimy substance dripping from their corpses.
