Description

Please help... I can barely sit up. My friend, a bear named Grimclaw, he's not here. I sent him ahead to let the Sentinels know we were coming before we left Auberdine, but he never arrived. I sensed something might be amiss as we were leaving, but with the evacuation, I never had a chance to act on it. If he's injured, there's only one place that he would go - the Withering Thicket, north of Auberdine, down the road to the south from here. Bring him back to me safely... he's my only family.

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.

  • A Cure In The DarkDarkshore · Level 5-30

    <Some unintelligible speech spews forth from the machine before you make out Wizbang's voice again.> Duskrats! They've been eating the duskrats! Those little buggers only come from one place, a cave against the cliff-face to the east.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Unsavory RemediesDarkshore · Level 5-30

    I have no doubts that Grimclaw will recover with the help of my healing magics, though I can't say the same for the poachers that attacked him. Still, I could use some salve to close his wounds and lessen his pain while he heals. To the east you will find the Ruins of Lornesta.
