Description

A few weeks ago, if you looked up, you'd see dozens of those beautiful eagles soaring the skies. Now, only a few if any. They've taken to staying with their nests nearly all the time now because the harpies have been stealing their eggs.

The harpies have grown a taste for eagle flesh, it seems... the sick wretches are caring for the eggs long enough to feast on the hatchlings. Go into the valleys to the north or the east and find the eggs... bring them back here, and I'll take them back to the nests.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Stemming the AggressorsThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Damn harpies. We've beat that bunch into submission more times than I can remember... and they stay quiet for a time after each bout. This time, I'd thought that maybe it sunk in. Apparently not. Their memory may be a bit short, but if their numbers are thinned enough, they'll keep to themselves.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Sirana IceshriekThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    This Sirana Iceshriek sounds like the one that's spurring the harpies to be more aggressive. If we kill her, I suspect their attacks won't last long afterwards. One of our stormriders claims to have spotted her circling the peak directly northwest of here. Go find the wench and put her down.
