Description
I have no knowledge of any artifact that Cho'gall is crafting, but I think I know one that can help. Countess Verrall is the ancient spirit of Loch Verrall to the north. She has no love for the Twilight's Hammer, who have polluted her waters. Seek her for the wisdom that you seek.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unbinding
Look, if there's one thing I know, it's elementals. I've been able to really gain an appreciation for how they feel. Let me tell you, they don't appreciate being enslaved one bit!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Elementium Axe
The Twilight cowards have captured and killed too many red dragons, but one yet lives. Do you remember Lirastrasza? She's shackled nearby and we're going to free her. But first, we need something sharp enough to cut through her chains. There's an old ettin named Blindeye the Guardian.
