TheWoWDBWhen writing a letter of recommendation, my warrior had the option to write "To Merrix, my other best bud." which is a clear reference to Stonehead in Revendreth, who calls you
bed budbest bud and who you have to write a forged letter for relating to the Ember Court. Not sure if need to be a venthyr or have done those quests to get this option, but it's a cute little reference either way :)Edit: accidently wrote bed bud instead of best bud >.>

Description
I hear you've come from the surface? Did you meet the earthen? We used to trade with them, but after the Day of Darkness we struggled to send envoys. Those we sent never made it back. Honestly, we thought that they had perished. I'm going to try reaching out again. I'd like for you to write a letter of recommendation, in case we did something to offend them.
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
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Batty Request
I'll gather a selection of our major trade goods before we head out for the meet up, but I could use some help in gathering some additional items. Lately we've been struggling with collecting the best bat meat in Hallowfall. Could you gather some before you come to Dunelle's Kindness?
