Description

Finally! I knew the little guy could do it.

No, that is a bald-faced lie. If this grovecrawler could somehow find a way back into his cocoon, he would already be there.

<Cyenna sighs.>

His second favorite treat is the potatoad. If that doesn't work, his third favorite treat is the petalwing. That should get him back onto his mite-hunting duties.

...I have the backbone of a wet frond.

This questline and one other require progress in the Campaign Quest line before they become available. (Trials of the Shul'ka, The Greenspeaker's Vigil).

I did all of the Campaign Quests on my main and have been going to do all of the minor quests in each zone with an alt for leveling purposes. So I have to go back on my main to complete the Sojourner requirements.

Trials of the Shul'ka:
Starting quest is My Brother's Alive! given by [npc=244163] (topside)

The Greenspeaker's Vigil:
Starting quest is Supplicants to the Goddess given by [npc=246607]

Quest turn in text for those of us that are softies for our pets:

I know you could do it, Riverscale! Who's a good grovecrawler? Who's the best crawler of them all?

Who's a big strong grovecrawler who knows how to teach strangers how to care for World Trees?

<Cyenne looks up at you.>

You knocked him out of his laziness, [Name]. I can't thank you enough for your help.

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.

    The roots of the World Trees are infused with both nutrients and the magic of Harandar. As the large vessels that they are, they will draw to them unwanted fauna and flora. Some of them are harmless, but we want to keep the roots clear.
