What to do

StorylineEastern Plaguelands, step 12 of 46
RewardsJoseph's Spare Belt, Finder's Keepers, Hide of the Lone Hunter, 4,100 XP

Description

My daddy always kept two swords: one for fighting with men, and one for hunting the animals. I wasn't supposed to touch his swords, but I knew where he hid them. One day, he told my mommy that he was going to fight a "lone hunter" in the hills to the east, but he brought his animal sword with him! When he came back, he didn't have his sword with him. When daddy comes back, he'll be so happy when I give him his animal sword! Will you go and find it?

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.

  • Pamela's DollEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    My auntie Marlene told me to stay here in our house because my father had to go and fight. My father's the bravest man in the whole world! But I've been here for a long time, and he hasn't come for me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Uncle CarlinEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    I'm going to play with dolly, but I don't want to play with daddy's sword after all. You'd better keep it. Even better, can you give it to my uncle Carlin? I'm not sure where he is, but sometimes I hear him crying. It sounds like he's nearby, to the north. I hope he's not crying for me!
