What to do
Description
Today is day forty-one without finding a harmful artifact. I am further delighted to report that while you were away, a handful more proved harmless. Perhaps my hunt in Winterspring is almost concluded! Come to think of it... you have some magical ability, don't you? Or enough bravery to help me test some more artifacts? Do not be nervous. None of them will permanently hurt you. Artifacts with that kind of dangerous power were taken care of in my first year here.
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.
- A Protector of Magic
I am very curious about Haleh--she is one of the last living consorts of Malygos. I am grateful for her going to Malygos in his time of need. I will admit, I have spent some time spying on her. She is a blue dragon through and through. Studious, proud, and one of the more careful ones around magic.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Owl of a Sudden
While you were working, I was inspecting the totemic ruins you retrieved. There has always been something odd about the Hidden Grove. It used to be occupied by a robust population of harmless white hares. Now there are only maddened owlkin and strange totems... I put the pieces together.
