The suspicion of that guy was growing after each quest. First ordering me to kill a nature guard bird after just only arriving to the gardens, then giving out gifts to guards and being so over-friendly with everybody.

Oh no! Oh my god! Who could have ever seen this coming? Blizzard keeps doing these quests where the mole is the most suspicious person in the world and you see the betrayal coming a mile away, but you just have to keep going to finish the quest.

Description

I must take a moment to thank you, {name}, for all your help. Truly, I never thought I would have a chance to admire the Dream within Ancient Bough! Not as a humble emissary! How very kind. Lord Somnikus has graciously invited me to set foot inside the grove and see the portal. I would be honored if you would join me. I will remember this moment for the rest of my life. Share it with me.

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.

  • Guarded AppreciationOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    I know it can be quite exhausting work to defend such an important locale. And often, we drakonids and dragonspawn get very little thanks for our dedication. I wish to bestow some of my own appreciation to the guards here in Ancient Bough.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • And Yet So FarOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    I cannot slip into the Dream here as I once did. With the bough defenses activated, we are essentially blocked from the grove. But I'm afraid it only gets worse, <name>. I believe Rymek did not merely trick us to gain access to the Dream. I suspect he is looking for something within it...
