If you are feeling silly and want to do the "optional" part where you wait for them to hide - simply do not move as soon as you pick the quest (you can abandon and pick the quest again if you missed it), and your character will hold hands over the face and "count" :)

Description

You're different! That makes you kinda cool... and kinda really suspicious. We wanna see what you're made of! So here's the game: we hide, and you try to find us. If you do, well... guess we'll have to train more for next time. But if you don't? Then maybe our parents will finally let us go on our first solo hunt! This isn't just a silly game, okay? It's a trial called Silence and Shadow. It's serious. Very, very serious. Are you ready?

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.

If mom and dad find out, we are going to be stuck on fish gutting duty for the rest of our lives! The elders keep telling us that fear is only useful if it sharpens the mind. Right now, we need clarity, not panic. We have to get rid of those nests.
