Description

To achieve perfect paint strokes, one must have the right tools. My own have fallen into disrepair, their bristles becoming as unmanageable as hozu hair. Have you seen the wasps throughout the Arboretum? Their stingers can be fashioned into quills that provide just the right level of sharpness in each line. Could you gather some for me please?

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Perfect ColorThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    As you have seen, this grove is abundant with beautiful pink petals. As each petal ages, the tone deepens and fades. If you would be so kind, I am in need of a few petals that have freshly fallen. Only the ones that have just fallen will have precisely the right color I am after.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Find the BoyThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    Have you seen my son, Lo? He was here a moment ago and I told him we were leaving today. I'm sure he's off trying to woo that young Syra Goldendraft. That is the very reason we need to leave! No son of mine is going to run off with a Goldendraft! I'm going to search around here for them.
