For new people this quest can be a pain because there are a lot of them there, just kill everything around you in a wide circle, it may take a while to kill all those things but it's better then dying. (New people wouldn't know how to use or where to get wands.)

And go out to the beach right there - It's Azurebreeze coast, it counts towards the "Explore Eversong woods" achievement. :D

Description

It's horrible, I tell you! Strange things happening in the spire, the magister and his apprentices run off, and then the next thing that you know, the whole grounds are overrun with these magical beasties! And who told Wyllithen? No one, that's who! {class}, you've got to help me clear some of these things out... I cannot maintain the grounds while these 'anomalies' are running amok!

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.

  • Abandoned InvestigationsEversong Woods (Burning Crusade) · Level 1-30

    You have discovered what appears to be an investigative journal left behind by Magister Duskwither. A brief scan of its contents reveal some shocking attempts at filtering corrupted magical flows, which might explain what has happened here at Duskwither Spire.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Amani InvasionEversong Woods (Burning Crusade) · Level 1-30

    Though you don't understand the language in these battle plans, you clearly make out a map marking the positions of the Farstrider Retreat and Fairbreeze Village. You'd best let Lieutenant Dawnrunner at the Farstrider Retreat know about this.
