This feels so sad, especially the whole "if you live long enough, we might meet again".
Simple really, return to the top of the hill between the 3 giant ancient protectors and your little...well big buddy will place his roots and stand in the same pose as his ancestors.

I want my baby back!
I know. . . Blizzard needs to make a quest line in Mount Hyjal that stems from this one or something.

What to do
Description
It is time to say goodbye now. You have raised me from a seedling, brief though it was, but now I must rejoin the forest. Take me back to the hill you found me on. There I will set my roots, and grow in the shadow of the ancients that came before me.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Last Protector
Ahhh... thank you, little <race>. I and others have tried so many times to grow in this forest, without success. The Withered Protector that lurks in the north is the only ancient to have grown to maturity since the ruining of the forest, but his body is sick and his mind is mad.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- WANTED: The Demon Hunter
Since reclaiming Jadefire Run from the satyr, the Emerald Circle has sent many druids to begin the long task of cleansing the ruins. Last night, several of them were murdered... by a night elf. The witnesses say it was a demon hunter, a crazed disciple of Illidan. A rare sight.
