What to do
Description
I remember seeing a blue seed with red leaves nearby, but it was in a cave behind a wall of brambles. I didn't think of it at the time, but maybe you could use the red seeds to get us in? I wish I didn't mix up the instructions or we wouldn't be in this mess. But maybe it's all going to work out anyway. Let's go!
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.
- Gorm Ruin Everything
These red seeds will still prove useful. They come from a very dangerous plant and are quite unstable. If we are going to recover the blue seed we really need, then these might help. Let's clear out some of these gorm and search for the real seed.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Seeds Away!
I think we have a problem. Plucking the seed from this root must have shaken some burrowed gorm awake. This isn't good! Grab on to me. I will fly us out of here, but we must stop the gorm before they overrun the local Vorkai defenses!
