Description

If I was able to find a bone fragment in what appeared to be a random location, then that means Eche'ro's bones must be scattered around Highmountain.

We must find his remains and give him the proper burial he deserved.

Oh, I'm sorry, in case you weren't aware, Eche'ro was Huln Highmountain's mount and companion.

He deserves to be honored as Huln once was.

Rewards

You will receive:

Spirit of Eche'ro

The Right PathLevel 45
This new shop is shaping up quite nicely, I think. Still, there's so much left to organize. <name>, Lessah has requested your presence in Highmountain. Something about a moose? I'm not sure to what she's speaking of, but as soon as you have a chance, please go see her.
