Super Rejuvenation Potion, 3,100 XPDescription
You there! Please, I need your help. This soldier will succumb to the cryptfiends' venom unless we act immediately. I've managed to slow down the poison, but without a suitable supply of antidote I cannot counteract it. I was promised a new shipment of anti-venom in the Stormbreaker's most recent trip from the south. Go inside its hold and search for a chest of first aid supplies. Hurry, {class}! We can't afford to lose any more men unnecessarily.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Plug the Sinkholes
The Scourge are showing no sign of letting up, <name>. It's those blasted sinkholes; they connect to tunnels all the way to Icecrown for all we know. Giant undead worms burrow under the ground to create them.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cultists Among Us
This altar bears all the markings of the Cult of the Damned. It appears fanatics from the mainland have made it into Northrend. It might be prudent to notify the captain of the ship. Perhaps he is to be found above deck.
