[npc=120095] located on small island named Darkstone Island' coordinates are 32.3 33.6.
If Thiseale Crown doesnt want to talk with you after you done the task, return to Deliverance point (or try relog).

Same thing happened to me: I didn't get any "?" after the mini-boss. However, when I went back to Deliverance Point, there still wasn't anything. Edit: I reloaded and there she was, at the steps to Deliverance Point, right next to Thaumaturge Vashreen.

Description

Their commander's name is Katith'rax. He's the one who organized these attacks, and now the one who leads them. Luckily, it doesn't seem as though he's far off. Right off the coast is a small island. Seems as though he hides there, barking orders without getting his hands dirty. I, on the other hand, enjoy getting my hands a little dirty. Don't you?

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Nature's TouchLevel 45

    Apparently we're not the only druids that have run into these demons. The Legion took a ton of captives and brought them back to their camp. Our brothers and sisters lay wounded and hurting... You can heal! Let's go save them!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • GroveboundLevel 45

    Now THAT was some good stuff right there. Now that we've taken out the commander, the druids and the ancients should be safe for a while. Revenge was an added bonus. We should get back to Rensar and tell him what we accomplished.
