A cutscene follows the acceptance of the quest.

Rhea walks into the nearby cave and drops her notes at the side of the cave.

Rhea says: I'll just leave this right here.

Then she walks to the back of the cave and carries a dragon egg out of a barrel.

Rhea says: How's my little baby doing?

Suddenly she notices a dragon standing outside the cave entrance and cowers in terror.

Rhea says: No... it's... it's you! NO!
Deathwing says: You impetuous little whelp... I know exactly what you and the mortal are up to.
Deathwing says: Are you ready to die, dragon?
Rhea says: Yes. Just... just show mercy to the egg.
Deathwing yells: Mercy?
Deathwing yells: THERE IS NO MERCY! YOU WILL BURN FOR THIS, DRAGON!

Deathwing proceeds to breathe fire into the entire cave and flies off without noticing the player hiding in the bushes outside the cave.

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 Hidden ClutchBadlands · Level 15-30

    With the major black dragons out of the Badlands, it is now safe to move the egg again. You will find me on a small plateau, north of New Kargath. Come and find me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Bloodwatcher PointBadlands · Level 15-30

    I've got an idea, but it's a bit of a long shot. Thankfully, long shots happen to be a specialty of mine. North of here, the Reliquary has uncovered a new set of titan ruins beneath the sands. If there's anything older and wiser than dragons, it's titans.
