don't do like I did - I wasn't paying that much attention to the number of bones I got and when the quest marker disappeared from my maps, I assumed that I was done. Got back to the cave and I was short one. Thanks to varenne above I know where to return to get that last one.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Old BearLevel 50

    I cannot change your mind, can I? Very well, I may know where you can find your answers. High in the mountains, there is a hidden alcove of impossibly verdant growth. It is there that the druids of Kul Tiras train in the old ways of the Drust - from before the time of Gorak Tul.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Buried PowerLevel 50

    Since time immemorial, the Drust have used runes to shape their magics. This remains true of the spells woven by Gorak Tul and his ilk. You will need some of these runes for your effigy to be effective.
