All you need to do is be at the ground by the questgiver's feet (27,55) and look down the gently sloping ramp that heads north. These little firey guys will just come up and attack, sometimes 2-3 at a time. They can teleport behind you, but that has only happened 1 time in the middle of a fight.

Description

It is... too late for me. Burned to all but the core. I have lived eons ... yet still my end seems sudden. New life can spring from old. I still have wisdom to pass on. Please... do not let them take me before my work is done. Keep the tormentors at bay... just a little longer, {class}. Give me minutes, and I will give you a thousand lifetimes.

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.
