What to do
Description
Fleshling. Some of your kind skitter among the rocks. Too cowardly to approach, too swift to be crushed. If you wish my favor, deal with them. I tire of these games.
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.
- Gone Soft
The fungal behemoths that surround us have succumbed to a weakness very similar to that that affects your kind. Their skin has grown soft. They no longer belong with the stone. Kill them. We do not wish to see this infection spread.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Head Full of Wind
I'm no druid, but some of these mushrooms do not look to be naturally occurring. I know that our Stone Lord friend over there is eager to blame this on exposure to Azeroth, but I suspect more domestic causes. I saw some clouds of red mist to the northeast, near the water's edge.
