What to do
Description
I have seen a strange ritual performed by ancients. They step into fire, burning the leaves from their branches and charring their bark. I call it the Ritual of the Charred. If we want to weaken the ancients, we can get rid of them before they become even stronger. - Frenna
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.
- The Sparring Arena
We owe you our freedom, and more. I have spoken to the others, we are willing to return with you to your garrison and teach those pitiful creatures you call "soldiers" how to properly fight. We will also do our best to impart our knowledge to you, Commander.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Chapter II: The Harvest
I have seen a creature working with the ancient saplings, imbuing them with anger and hatred toward creatures unlike them. Perhaps it is this botani who is responsible for the unusually aggressive nature of ancients here in Tangleheart. Would killing this botani do us good?
