Ok when they say it's upstairs... it's on a whole 'nother level. If you're like me and spent 15 mins trying to find it, you in the cavern below... fly up... way up to find it. You have to fly out as well.

Description

This was once a great lake. Over time the roots ruptured its floor, and drained the water away. I have lived here for all of my lifetime and witnessed it all. But now, darker changes have come. Sometimes changes comes with death. Decay is natural. But the mites that feed upon my people are not. They spread an odd infestation that makes my bark feel like it crawls from my body. Destroy these mites, so that I may rest without fear of their mouths upon my sleeping form.

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.

Tense RecoveryAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80
Things with these strangers are... tense. We do appreciate being allowed to take cover here in their camp. But they only seem to tolerate us at best. We offered to share our supplies, but that offended them, somehow. My sister is gravely wounded.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Rings of MemoryAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80
I appreciate what you have done. Do not worry--I am not finished yet. If you please, take this root to those who sent you. They can read the history of my life within the rings of wood therein. My life is one of many in the tapestry, but we are all intertwined.
