Description

Pleasure to meet you, adventurer. I wonder if you might be willing to help me with some research? I'm sure you've noticed the fog beasts that have recently started encroaching upon this area. People see them as a bad omen, they always seem to show up during periods of ecological imbalance. I disagree with this assertion. Still as an expert in all vapor-based magics, I've been hired to find out where they're coming from so they can be cut off at the source.

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.

    While I analyze these fog samples, I have another task for you. My employers have asked me to figure out where these fog beasts are coming from. I've developed these trackers. If you could, please attach them to an assortment of fog beasts. You'll have to get close, so... be careful.
