The alpha wolf nearby will on some sort of timer howl, summoning two more wolves. If you are not a master at DPS races, instead you can do it like I did.

Start with some sort of stun on him or get him away from the plant and root him.
Pick the plant. This has a cast time long enough he has probably summoned two buddies, maybe three.
Flee. Line-of-sight block them with the tree on the way back to Beggar's Haunt and what little passes for a road here.
The foes despawn.

I did pop a trink with tentacles (Touch of the Void) but while they did some damage, the foe's attention was squarely on me.

pluck plant.
run.

Description

Duskwood has a direct connection to the Emerald Dream. Through this connection, I may be able to call forth the Ancient Goldrinn. He will be able to give the princess a taste of the curse she so dangerously chases. A rare bloom grows on the east side of the woods, gather its bloom and meet me in Twilight Grove. It will help me with this ritual.

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.

  • Bane of the NightbaneLevel 50-90

    Princess Greymane has informed me of the situation and I do have an idea of how to help. But first, a favor for a favor. The residents of Duskwood have been plagued recently by a particularly ferocious member of the Nightbane pack that they call 'Bloodeyes'.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Spirit of the HunterLevel 50-90

    The other thing I may need for this ritual are the fangs of a wolf. There is a pack that has newly settled in around Manor Mistmantle. Bring me their fangs. I will await your return at Twilight Grove.
