StorylineAshenvale, Alliance, step 1 of 50
Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

There is a plant that grows in the old ruins of Bathran's Haunt across the road to the east. The plant is called Bathran's Hair and is known to cure ailments of the spirit. Now the Horde are there harvesting the plant for their own evil schemes. There is a sick child in Astranaar, and we believe that her illness is more than just physical. I promised my master that I would help seek a cure, but I am no fighter. Will you go to Bathran's Haunt and gather the plants?

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.
