Description
The furbolgs' work must be undone, {name}. The best of intentions do not count for much when the result is tainted by such strong a corruption. The sapling must be destroyed, for it is the source of this dark influence. Take this torch and use it to set fire to the corrupted sapling and bring me its ashes. Once cleansed, by fire, I will use what power I can to remove the taint from them. You will need the ashes to purify Ursoc from the evil power that holds sway over him.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Free at Last
The rock shard you imbued should be powerful enough to break the runic magic binding my brothers. Take it with you and find the runed giants walking north along the Eastwind Shore. Unleash the power stored in the stone and observe the results.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Vordrassil's Seeds
We must make sure that Vordrassil is never regrown. The furbolg must have harvested its seed. Go to Grizzlemaw, in central Grizzly Hills, and obtain all the seeds that you can find. I will make sure they're properly destroyed.
