Soil-Based Alternatives

Soil-Based Alternatives is a quest for level 83-88 in Harandar. It is step 2 of 5 in the Harandar's Kitchen storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Harandar at 40.9, 23.2. It rewards 6,100 experience and money.

Description

This meal is more than tradition--it is a promise.

The haranir, rutaani, and fungarians share no love, but in Har'mara they share this table. To honor that pact, each must be fed in their own way. That is what this meal means.

For the rutaani, they will need nutrient-rich soil as they draw sustenance through their roots. A few bags of it should do.

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.

  • Fresh from the GardenHarandar · Level 83-88

    Age has caught up with me this morning and I have pulled something. <Yu'relen clutches his back.> Still, our village meal must be prepared. Otherwise, it will mean the loss of much more than just an empty stomach.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Root Dash DeliveryHarandar · Level 83-88

    It's simple fare, but made with care and meaning. Please, take it to the gathering place. I am sure the villagers will show up when the food comes. Despite the simplicity, if it brings quiet among them, it has done its part.
