Description

My people do not think that this Black Blood is a threat to our world. It has sat dormant for ages, after all. Why should that change now? But the world is changing more quickly than my people realize. The nerubians' decision to extract the Blood for their own ends is proof of that. The nerubians hold a watchtower not far from here. The ones who survived the pit could not have gotten too far. We should give chase immediately.

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.

  • Fear the Old BloodAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    This is not exactly the place for a long talk, so I will be brief. These roots you see are part of something much greater than you know, and it is my job to protect them. If it isn't obvious to you already, this place is teeming with writhing Black Blood.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Guiding ThreadAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    <The words on the parchment appear burned, not written. A venomous tang singes your nose.> Blind and alone, you stumble in the dark. I offer you a thread to cling to. Follow it, should you wish to find your allies.
