I noticed the festivities have drawn the attention of a few spriggans from Ardenweald. They are curious creatures with... interesting tastes.

Their pranks have been more than disruptive. Please root them out so the celebration may continue in peace.

Here's all of the jokes I was able to catch from the Talking Fish. Was really hoping there were more.

A bear, a raven, and a stag walk into a bar. She says, "I'll have a drink. Shapeshifting is hard work!"
What do you call a pile of feral druids? A meowtain!
How does a druid cut his hair? Eclipse it!
When do hozen visit the phyisican? When they aren't peeling well!
How do you fish without a fishing rod? With your bear hands!
Why were the Gilnean druids so sleepy? They were worgen too hard!
What did the druid in aquatic form say to his friend? Catch you on the flipper side!
Where did the druid sleep while in Vashj'ir? With the fishes!

I feel bad for the spriggans here

and also like we missed a true opportunity.


  • There's a World Quest and at minimum one fruit option about putting foes in bubbles - they.could have enjoyed that sort of silliness and/or "rescue" from boredom.

  • There are kids present we could get to play with the spriggans.

  • We could get credit for setting off fireworks near them or something like that.

As for me I took the quest literally; the quest is to reveal them, not destroy or fight them. So to my best effort I shadowmeld after finding them, and they went away.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Disquieting FeelingEmerald Dream · Level 10-80

    Ah, <name>! You're just the person I was looking for. I'm a little concerned about Khadgar. I don't think it's anything dire, but he doesn't seem to be enjoying himself like everyone else--he just seems... distracted. I don't want to pry, but perhaps you could bring him a drink for me?
