If you are in a group, this quest can bug out. You need to help each of the four yourself, but if you friend does it too, it counts twice, so it'll say 4/4 after 2, when you still need to do the other 2 as well.

Wowhead shows it above "Mother/Brother/Sister/Neighbour" but in game it only shows the count of citizens.

What to do

StorylineThe Waning Crescent, step 3 of 13
RewardsEnchanted Nightborne Coin, 20g 22s, 6,150 XP

Description

There is much you need to learn about our city. First and foremost, Arcwine. It is the vehicle by which we imbibe the Nightwell's energies. Without it, we wither and die. Palace lackeys have seen fit to ration it, thinking this will control us. Keep us quiet, complacent. I would like you to look for those in need near the tavern. You will find many, but those most desperately afflicted by this rationing will be obvious. Take this flask. Revive them. Tend to their suffering.

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.

  • One of the PeopleSuramar · Level 45

    It is time for you to enter the city proper, <name>. I am sending you to my loyal friend Vanthir. I do hope you remember him- I can guarantee that he remembers you. I will not be able to accompany you, but I must stress that the disguise I have granted you is not impervious.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Special DeliverySuramar · Level 45

    Verene's child has gone missing. I can guess what happened, but I need to be sure. Most guardsmen use couriers to relay delicate information. In this, magic is strictly the province of high ranking officials. Take this blade. Do not touch the cutting edge.
