I don't think I've ever seen the word "blowhard" used in this game before, lol.

Also, some helpful information (thought this quest is done in 60 seconds anyway): it seems you can't use abilities while pulling the weeds to make it go slightly faster -- I tried [spell=198793] and [spell=195072], and both times, the weed just snapped and I had to try again. Just walk.

Description

I can scarcely believe it! Eggs of the Black Dragonflight! After all this time! But look at the state of this place! It will not do at all! Nothing is too good for these eggs. Though with those two blowhards squabbling like children for the Life-Binder's favor, you can bet they have not spared a thought for us! You, though, will not leave an old egg tender all alone, will you?

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.

  • The Last EggtenderThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    I understand your concern, <class>, but all will be rectified shortly as it seems that we are about to have company. Feel free to stay and witness what transpires. It should be quite cathartic. Do speak with our egg tender when you have a moment, though. She will no doubt need the support.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Life-Binder on DutyThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    Soon the Life Pools will be full once again. Thank you for your part in this, <name>, it means more than I can ever hope to express. Go, find the Life-Binder by the oathstone. Tell her that we are ready for the eggs.
