Description
While leather armor is strong on its own, integrating scales into the design is what truly sets it apart. The type of scales you use will determine how many you'll need to fully protect the wearer. And one of the strongest type of scales are basilisk scales. A fully matured basilisk has the strongest of course. Near the village of Llothien is a basilisk den. Kill the matriarch and return her scales to me.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Eye of Azshara: Scales of the Sea
When we first met, I spoke of the naga, and the armor they're able to craft. No grander armor is worn, however, than by their top warlords. One in particular resides within the Eye of Azshara itself. His name is Warlord Parjesh, and the hauberk he wears is one of legend.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Time Well Spent
Unfortunately, <name>, you have learned all that I have to teach. I am pleased we were each able to achieve our goals in this partnership. Go now and share what you've learned with your allies in Dalaran. I'm sure they'd be eager to share in your training.
