Description

I know Lor'themar is angry, but... this is strange, <name>. They didn't attack Suncrown--the Lightbloom did. What are the Amani doing over there?

There has to be some kind of explanation for this. It doesn't look like an invasion. Let's see what we can find out.

There's a current bug where it's possible to get stuck with 4/5 progress and have no means to complete the quest as even the quest marker will disappear from your map. In this case, abandoning the quest is the only option.

I had this problem too. Have put a bug report in. I restarted it a few times before I managed it. I found that it bugged out on the pile of wood just before you go up the hill to hand it in. I left that until last and it worked.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Old ScarsEversong Woods · Level 80-83
Of course the Amani would use this moment to encroach, the cowards. We are beset on all sides! This land belongs to the sin'dorei, and I will not see it taken by anyone. Not by raging plants, not by a cult, not by the Void, and never by the Amani!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Following the RootEversong Woods · Level 80-83
Lor'themar has a right to defend this land, but I don't think he's seeing clearly. The presence of Amani is too inciting. This doesn't add up. The trolls are going out of their way to craft Lightbloom weapons--to fight what? It isn't us. They didn't attack Suncrown. They could have, and they didn't.
