Description

You are in a unique position, {name}. A position to learn. You met those who would bring this "Bender of Edicts" to justice, but what of the people of Dornogal? What do the earthen think of this Steelvein fellow? Humor me. Take the smuggled goods you intercepted and bring them to their intended recipients. Tell them the items are a gift from a "mutual friend." You might be surprised to learn who benefits from these... illicit deeds.

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.
