I'm Not Lion!

I'm Not Lion! is a group quest for level 10-45 in Highmountain. It is step 9 of 10 in the Nesingwary's Retreat storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Highmountain at 40.0, 52.3. It rewards 1 reward item, 7,700 experience and money.

Description

I've hunted many exotic beasts in my day, but I've never seen a lion like the one I encountered while scouting the basin.

The beast's amber eyes locked on mine, luring me closer. I was helpless to this predator's enchanting gaze. It was only when the lion pounced did the stupor break.

I've told Hemet of this magical beast, but he laughs. I'm not lying, <name>! The lion exists.

If you find the beast, bring me a trophy of your kill, and I'll reward you handsomely.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Scout It OutHighmountain · Level 10-45

    You've proven that a gnome can shoot a rifle, and that's no easy feat, but a true test of Addie's skill will be to see if she can track down an elusive beast. Rumor has it that a ravenous roc circles the basin, cursed by harpy magic, but no one's seen the beast up close.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Moose on the LooseHighmountain · Level 10-45

    There's been chatter around the hunters' lodge about a crazed moose that is terrorizing the basin. I've never laid eyes on the beast myself, but they say its antlers are illuminated with magic. Where other lesser hunters have tried and failed, you will prevail, and collect me a one-of-a-kind trophy!
