Be warned, if you don't do this quest before you find the NPC Nighteyes in the Menagerie area, you won't be able to do the quests that come after it. I was on this quest and found Nighteyes in a pond in front of the Menagerie area and he gave me the quest to free the menagerie animals, and then to free the devilsaur while I still had this quest in my log. So after I finally got around to turning in "Scouting the Crimson Thicket", I was not able to get another quest after it. So there's about three quests I missed entirely due to this. So be warned.

What to do
Description
If you are heading east, there is something I would ask of you. While we struck camp some of our caravan left to scout around the city. Lilryia Dawnwind has been gone too long. I would be most grateful if you would go check on her safety. She said she was going to scout out the ruins of Dawncleft.

- Turn Around, Nighteyes
Stranger, you must help me! Nighteyes, my old friend... he was scouting ahead and I heard him cry out a warning. I tried to run after him, but in my carelessness I stepped in this trap. He's so close, just on the other side of this ridge. Please find him!
