I don't know what exactly I'm scrubbing, but they really like me afterwards.

Noggenfogger + Goblin/Gnome + This quest = awesome
Let me just grab an animal that is slightly larger than me and scrub it down...
Based on the animation, I'm going to assume you're cleaning the nether-regions. I'd be that happy too if someone decided to just randomly clean my jiggly bits.

What to do
Description
The larger animals are often too far corrupted to save, but you'd be surprised how hardy the little ones are. Take the squirrels, for example. After washing in corrupted water, they can spread illness far from the original source, but it's slow to affect the squirrels themselves. In fact, a simple washing will result in a clean squirrel and a safer forest! Here, take this bottle of cleaning mixture. Grab and scrub any squirrel you see in the woods to the south... they'll be thankful for it!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Running Their Course
I'd love so much to save every creature in the forest, but as you probably have seen, some are just too far gone. When we first founded Whisperwind Grove, the woods just to the south were full of beautiful coursers, majestic and gentle creatures.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Weeding the Lawn
In a place like this, even something as simple as growing flowers and pulling weeds can require some heroic effort. The orchid lashers that grow on all sides of the grove are a sign of healing. But they're not flawless; some of them do succumb to demonic corruption now and then.
