If you have already started the quest line, but somehow got lost, try looking inside the Amberglow Hollow cave.
I was looking for about an hour before I found Kor'ik inside with two new quests.
If you are traveling on ground above the cave, the quest indicator phases out very quickly, so it is easy to miss it. You have to go inside to be able to see the quest marker.
The cave entrance is at 46.4, 52.8.
Good luck~!

Description

Why would the saurok have amber? More importantly, why would Oracle Hiss'ir be so protective of it? It is unlikely this came from the heavily guarded Zan'vess, so where did it come from? Perhaps the Klaxxi will know what to make of it.

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 Kunchong WhispererDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    To really connect with Kovok you need to challenge him mentally and physically. You must respect his strength and intelligence; only then will he allow you to really train him. The muckscale tribe may provide an adequate test of his abilities and with you there he shouldn't be in danger.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Heavens Hum With WarDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    The mantid don't ever make my job easy, but now they've gone too far. We can fend off the occasional attack from Kor'vess, but now... now they're starting to surround us. What's worse, they're draining the amber from our tree. This will not stand! We need that amber! To make beer!
