Description

I still have some cleanup to do here in the pass - there are some mantid still making it through. You're a valuable person to have at hand though, and I know Taran wouldn't appreciate me keeping you longer for such basic work.

Taran should still be in the main camp with Gao-Ran. Report back in. I'll catch up with you a bit later.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Restless WatchTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    I'm being told that our scouts have been on duty in Shallowstep Pass for more than 2 days straight, no rest. No wonder mantid are slipping through. Even the most dedicated scouts would slip with those kinds of shifts.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Treatment for the TroopsTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    A new face! Pleasure to meet you. I'm Septi. I keep the Shado-Pan fighting. The mantid have poison that chews through the skin and infects the blood. It makes for a slow, excruciating death when not treated. I need pollen from the violet citron flowers.
