Description
Those little E'rnee duplicates were unfriendly. Some effect of the Falls created them. They are not stable. Did you see where they went? They must be culled before they harm the rest of the wildlife. You take care of that while I collect another sample from the Falls.
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.
- Cascades of Magnitude
Many of the creatures here at Dimensional Falls are particularly affected by the environment. Hmm... let us experiment with the waterfalls themselves! We have seen unique effects from various natural components here in Zereth Mortis. Why not the water as well?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Can I Keep Him?
Oh, no. I have created havoc in this sacred place. Look. E'rnee has bonded with you. It pains me, but you would be a better caretaker for him than I have been. Once we resolve this, you should take him. Now we know, at least, that the Falls have the ability to change the size of creatures.
