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.
- Back to Headquarters!
Eadweard called for your return to the main office after I'd finished with you... er, this experiment, I mean. I'm sure it has to do with pomp, circumstance, reward, and what have you. If any of that entices you, then best hurry before his bag of goodies runs dry to all the other recent recruits.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Excavation: Gaze of Neltharion
A Niffen colleague of mine gave me the underground info about an underground tower. It's decrepit and smack-dab in the middle of Zaralek between Loamm, the Djaradin, and that ghastly lab of Neltharion's. Grab your favorite shovel and meet me there!
