Upon engaging this mob on my Shaman, I instantly dropped a Searing Totem, causing him to yell the following before despawning:

"Searing Totem... you must be the one that's been helping these pitiful mistlurkers."

I found that quite amusing.

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.

  • Orbiss FadesTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    I knew death would come. I did not know that it would come this fast. I must buy time. The mist of the Upper Sumprushes is warm and fragrant. Such mist is nutritive to my kind. Gather this mist however you can... in jars, in vials, within the interior of your bags.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Behind the BattlefrontTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    This battlefront has been undermanned and unsupplied for too long during my absence in Kun-Lai. We need to get things back in order here before we can pick up the trail of the Sha of Hatred. Taoshi is my best.
