Rewards20g 22s, 6,150 XP

Description

Is this the end? Our beloved Malfurion. I saw him in the Dreamer's clutches, but Ysera was... changed. Twisted. Shaladrassil, our mighty world tree, is corrupted beyond recognition. We were forced to flee our home without our belongings. Some were heirlooms, sacred to us. Return them to me if you can, {class}, I beg you.

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.
