Description

The furbolg covet that which does not belong to them. <Hephaestus turns the charm over in his hand and then discards it.> There's a property to the carving that slowly corrupts those that aren't trolls. As I understand it, the furbolg have done this sort of thing before. Some never learn. No doubt they hoard most of the charms in Thistlefur Hold above their village to the north.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Worgen WisdomAshenvale · Level 7-30

    The man standing right across from me is known as Hephaestus Pilgrim. He's one of the worgen. He and his sister came to Astranaar not long ago looking for a place to live. From what little I've been able to glean, he's interested in trying to help the Earthen Ring with the Cataclysm.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Go With The FlowAshenvale · Level 7-30

    <The worgen stares at you intently before launching into his request.> The volcano threatens to engulf all of Ashenvale if we do not act quickly. Let me assure you, this was no natural eruption. My sister, Sabina, is powerful.
