While you're adventuring in Hallowfall you'll probably kill creatures at the Sunless Strand and find a [item=217352] which will start Gasping Plea.

Find the location marked on your map and you'll meet a [npc=219430] for the Crushing Depths storyline (Tidal Charms,Voices from the Deep,Alluring Offer) that will eventually lead to Return to the Sea with the [item=222964] reward.

Make sure you're not on a mount when you are supposed to throw the fish into the water. When I did the quests, the extra action buttons for [spell=440905] and [spell=440980] didn't show until I dismounted.

For anyone unsure of how to place the fish in the water, it shows up on your "Extra Action Button" (which for me is in the middle of my screen between the name plates of myself and my target.)

Even though the item ([item=217352]) shows "Use: Drop the fish in the water", right clicking it just says "You are already on that quest".

Description

<A gasping, pathetic-looking fish taken from the corpse of a kobyss flops weakly in your hand. Its beady eye twitches, and you suddenly hear a breathless voice in the recesses of your mind.> The water. Take me to the water. Away from these kobyss wretches. Away from the sky.

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.

  • Targeted ReconHallowfall · Level 75-78

    If you've spent much time in Hallowfall, no doubt by now you've run across the foul magic of the kobyss. Reports that their illusions have been evolving are fiercely debated within the Arathi Army. Your outside perspective is just what I'm looking for.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Tidal CharmsHallowfall · Level 75-78

    <When the fish speaks, its lips do not move. You hear its voice in your head.> No doubt you have found that your senses cannot be trusted when dealing with the kobyss. A tremendous power, is it not? It is only fair that you show them the power they wield is not theirs alone.

The storyline at a glance

Crushing Depths has 6 steps, from Targeted Recon to Return to the Sea.
