If you ever run into the NPCs not spawning where you have to hand in the final step, seeing only the little girl:


  1. make a group

  2. have the person it bugs for become the leader

  3. party sync

Not sure what triggered this bug for my friend, but it affected other quests afterwards as well and I suspect a faction transfer broke something.

Also unable to turn it in.

Tried leaving the zone entirely, reloading, and relogging. Gave up and logged out for the night hoping that the daily reset would fix it.

Still nothing the next day. Abandoned the quest, redid it, still can't turn it in so bug report it is I suppose.

Edit 03/06/2026: I am an idiot.

I forgot I turned off error messages with Leatrix Plus to avoid the Lua error popup, but that also includes things like "You must choose a quest reward" and apparently I can't read and didn't see the "choose reward" text over the items, so I wasn't clicking on either item, so the "complete quest" button was doing nothing.

Disabled all addons, tried to turn it in and got the "You must choose a quest reward" message and immediately wanted to crawl in a hole and die for playing this game for 10+ years and somehow not noticing that.

Be smarter than me.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

The Vilebranch seemed to be just as confused by the mist as the Witherbark. Whatever has caused de mist, dealin' with de Vilebranch changed nothing. And now we must find de hash'ey shrines in de dark. <Zul'jarra moves her hand in front of her face, testing her range of visibility, and frowns.> We must light de shrines. Try not to get separated. Dis will try my patience. But I'm sure if we use our heads, we will find de path.

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.

  • Rescue from the ShadowsZul'Aman · Level 83-88

    Kul'amara has told me dat a shadowy mist has fallen over Numazon. She believes de Vilebranch are behind it, usin' their magic to hide de crimes dey commit against de Witherbark. She believes dey are hidin' in de Numazon crypts. De hash'ey shrines are near there as well.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Halazzi's GuileZul'Aman · Level 83-88

    Who are these people? Where did they come from? Did dey find their way here from Numazon? How? De mist keeps you from knowin' if you are comin' or goin'. And where is Halazzi? I need answers... now!
