Description

Okay, {name}, we need to get to the earth portal at the back of the cave. I've "procured" a ride for us. Why walk when we can ride in style? I hope you don't mind mine carts. Let me know when you're ready.

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.

    Take my Water of Life and pass it into the corpse of the drowned dwarf. He was a worker of metals in life, and though his body now feeds my loch, the Water will allow him to tell you what you want to know. Then take your information and be gone from my demesne.
