EDIT. THIS QUEST HAS A BUG. IF HE DOES NOT PICK YOU UP AND FLY YOU OVER TO ELYSIAN HOLD, ABANDON THE QUEST AND PICK IT BACK UP AGAIN BACK AT THE QUESTGIVER. HUGE WASTE OF TIME. YOU CANNOT RUN THERE.

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.
