Good Counsel

Good Counsel is a quest for level 10-80 in Emerald Dream. It is step 6 of 12 in the Eye of Ysera storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Emerald Dream at 53.1, 28.2. It rewards 9,500 experience and money.

Description

Galok is a coward. He refuses to engage us directly until he is sure of success.

We do not have the resources to attack his base. But if we cannot go to him, maybe we can entangle him in our own territory.

I am confident we can prepare a trap here for Galok and his forces. My plan is not without risks, and controlling the playing field will be our key advantage.

The question remains... how do we lure them here?
