Description

I've one more favor to ask, fleshling.

There is a basilisk, much larger and much older than the rest. Though we normally fear nothing from their kind, this one has become so potent as to petrify some of my sons. This shall not be abided.

Find Gorgonite to the east and slay him. He has lived much longer than necessary.

When attacking Gorgonite, a Son of Kor 'assists' you by hurling large rocks at him. The location of these rocks show as blue runes on the ground before they hit, but it seems to affect you regardless of whether you are in the rune or not, by casting you up into the air. When the rocks land, they leave a click-able 'action cog' icon when mousing over them titled 'Collision' however for me, they did nothing when I clicked on them.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Petrified DelicaciesDeepholm · Level 30-35

    Petrified bats. Elementals of that size are picky. You're not likely to find anything better easily. To the east are basilisks. They petrify stone bats that fly too close and snack on them when they grow hungry. You may find bats scattered around their territory. I must warn you...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Steady HandDeepholm · Level 30-35

    Nearby to the north, you will find Terrath the Steady. He has taken upon the task of pulling the stone dragons back into the fold. We find ourselves repeating this trial every few hundred years... the stone dragons are fickle, and bend only to strength.
