Description

A dog, of all creatures? This is the thief we've been chasing? And now we must save it from a lynx? Truly, this day has taken a most... irritating turn. No matter, we shall retrieve the journal... though I do wonder if this canine truly understands the gravity of its actions.

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.
