Description
Help us, {class}! The forest is aflame, and the wee animals can't find their way out. They can't fight for themselves, with their teeny-tiny little teeth and their soft furry paws! They're fluffy and sweet. They have wet little noses! If you don't save them, I don't want to even THINK about it. <She slaps her palms over her eyes.> I'm not thinking!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Disrupting the Rituals
The firestorms up ahead are unbound elementals in the purest form - something I didn't think could exist outside their own plane. Only very skilled summoners could unleash something like this. <name>, head into the Inferno and seek out Twilight Inferno Lords.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Oh, Deer!
Do you speak deer? It's all in the nose. <She points to her nose.> The does have fled the fires, but their little fawns - Some of them are still trapped in the burning and the hurt! Go back into the Inferno and escort three injured fawns back here to their mothers right here beside me.
