Me: *finds Unidentified Remains #2: noticeably short in stature, a skull with a pointed snout, and a tail*
Quest: <The deceased was much shorter in stature than a night elf, likely a vulpera, goblin, or gnome.>
Me: Pretty sure goblins and gnomes don't have pointed snouts or tails...

Description

After speaking with the warden, I learned the Battle of the Barrier where my sister fell took place east of here, on the shores of the Ohn'ahran Plains. I understand her body was washed out to sea and never recovered. It's possible the tide brought her remains back to shore at some point. Will you help me look for her? Each member of my family has a necklace with this distinct design. It will identify Koroleth's body. I would like to lay her to rest with the family she loved.

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.

    Warden Malathra has granted us permission to speak with the Primalists. They might have switched sides, but the wardens are keeping a close eye on them. <Kelestra begins to look distressed.> I'm going to talk to the Warden more. Could you handle the Primalists?
