Anchors to Life

Anchors to Life is a quest for level 36-80 in Ohn'ahran Plains. It is step 7 of 12 in the Garden of Secrets storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Ohn'ahran Plains at 28.4, 48.6. It rewards 9,500 experience and money.

Description

Based on my research, I believe there's a way to reestablish Ysera's ties to the Emerald Dream, so we can bring her closer to Azeroth.

When Ysera died, the Winter Queen used her own power to restore her in Ardenweald. For now, she's bound there, but I think if we can just get Ysera over into the Emerald Dream, we can use these anchors to keep her there.

But I'm getting ahead of everything.

First, we have to infuse these anchors with the power of those Emerald Tears.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Frenzied DefenderOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    I have noticed that these gardens have rather diverse defenses, from the dragons to the drakonid and ancients... and even the wildlife! But there is one defender that seems to have become rather too zealous in its protectiveness. It even tried to swoop at me when I arrived!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To SomnikusOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    Somnikus has been melancholy and agitated since the death of his son. Though we have all endured loss, I cannot imagine what I would feel were something like that to happen to Gerithus. Go with Rymek to the isle, and see if there's anything we can do.
