TheWoWDBDon't be like me and try to figure out what to do with [npc=200776]s already in the pools. Click on the [object=386543]es around the pools to collect the [npc=201032]s, then bring them back to the pool. The water elemental (when they catch up to you) will have an extra action button to release them.

Don't be like me either having to come here to look up how to even do the quest because it's not explained in game AT ALL, not unlike a lot of quests over the years. It doesn't mention bushes so you are spending time looking for mobs.
also don't be like me and go swimming in the pool because that's where the quest # is! Also the elemental does nothing and they didn't use the little collectoe bag icon like the hundred other "collect the bunnies" quests. Weird and poorly written. Thanks!

Description
The same toxins that plague our Support Creche are seeping into migrating watersnakes. We need to relocate the snakes back to their original pools. If we don't, that invasive species is going to wreak havoc on the environment. I can loan you a friendly water elemental to help you transport the snakes. It's for our own safety as much as theirs.
