TheWoWDBSo I literally don't know what kind of history the writer of the Drust quests is aware of, but landing on and claiming space in an existing civilization is not "trying for peace" it's an invasion, it's colonization. You don't get to walk into someone's yard and say "Hey I live here now but don't be mad okay?". Of course the indigenous inhabitants are going to feel threatened by that? Cleardawn and the High Thornspeaker make statements that not all the Drust were aggressive in response, but the tone-deaf nature of this entire series is just ... very smh ... Even at one of the stones when Cleardawn discovers that the Drust were being killed to the point of invoking their very life-force to survive. It willfully paints the Drust in a very ugly light and the idea that no one seems to acknowledge the Drust being portrayed this way in the universe is extremely unsettling and reeks of imperialist rewriting. Lucille tells us the Drust were "barbarians" (always a cool way to address indigenous peoples), which indicates that the real history of the Kul Tirans and the Drust was rewritten to make the Drust look like merciless monsters ... which again Cleardawn is forced to acknowledge was not entirely the case.
There's this horrible lack of awareness and understanding of the nuances and connections. I'm really disappointed, seriously.

What to do
Description
There is an opportunity here. Learning more about the Drust can not only help us understand the texts that Lady Lucille found, we might be able to discover greater details about how they and their constructs were finally defeated. Filling in the gaps of history could be key to victory now. This was one of their settlements before it became the place of their final defeat. Let's look for clues in the ruins.

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.
- Through the Old Roads
Lady Waycrest has entrusted me with securing the town of Falconhurst and the services of Master Alchemist Ashton who lives there. However, I have found out no one has heard from Falconhurst in some time.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Honorable Discharge
Some of the spirits on the battlefield are too weary to go on. These were brave Kul Tirans. They have more than earned their rest but their sense of duty holds them here. Order the most weary spirits off the field of battle. Hopefully they will be convinced to rest.
