Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Wading In
Too many spirits here have succumbed to de dark charms of Nek'zali, but there's still hope to save others. Place spirit guardians throughout de lakes of venom so dey may offer sanctuary to spirits nearby. De venom lakes are deadly, so go prepared!
After this quest
Taken from a quest that requires this one.
- The Innocent Essence
When de defenders fell, cursed to their fate, so too did de great eagle Tok'jara who flew with dem. Such innocence did not deserve dis curse. Even now, de spirit struggles to break free, forming a twisting geyser as it rises from the venomous pools.
