StorylineEversong Woods, step 7 of 35
RewardsBloodhawk Claymore, Long Knife, Short Knife, 5,150 XP

Description

Listen, {name}. This is a very delicate situation; even though we've identified the spy, we cannot kill him out in the open. We cannot try to capture him either as the risk of him escaping is too great. I want you to go find Prospector Anvilward at the North Sanctum and kill him. Do this in a quiet manner, we don't want word to spread that we allowed a spy into our city. Bring me his head as proof. Ironforge will learn not to meddle with the sin'dorei.

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.

  • Incriminating DocumentsEversong Woods (Burning Crusade) · Level 1-30

    The documents contain detailed maps of different strategic buildings in Eversong Woods. A diagram of an arcane sanctum is also sketched in good detail. There seem to be numerous notes in a language you don't recognize.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Pelt CollectionEversong Woods (Burning Crusade) · Level 1-30

    The springpaw that inhabit this region are known for their high quality pelts. We've even seen night elf scum travel to these lands just to poach them. Our skirmishes with the Amani have put a bit of a strain on our supply of gear and our rangers don't have much time to hunt for pelts anymore.

The storyline at a glance

Eversong Woods has 35 steps, from WANTED: Thaelis the Hungerer to The Dead Scar.
