What to do
Description
Over the hill north of here is a fungarian village, Fungal Cleft. I believe the missing rutaani have been taken there. The fate that awaits them is a brutal one if we do not get them back quickly. Usually, fungarians favor hosts that are already dead for their reproductive purposes. The ones here are strangely vicious, however. I have seen some mushroom-covered animals and rutaani who are still moving around! It is unnatural. Go to Fungal Cleft and see if you can rescue the missing travelers.
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.
- Late Bloomers
It is good to see you again, <name>. Orweyna told me that you might be able to help me with something. A group of rutaani were due to arrive here earlier today, but they're late. They're coming up from Blooming Terrace with my mentor, Ru'gar, and I am worried they've had trouble on the road.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Back in the Bag
What a mess this is. The sack you found was supposed to be filled with seeds. They're part of an important cultivation project that Ru'gar was working on. It appears the fungarians made off with the seeds when they captured the rutaani.
