Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Collecting KelpElwynn Forest · Level 1-30

    I can make an invisibility liquor for Maybell, so she can slip away from the Maclure Vineyards and go to Tommy Joe. But to make the liquor, I need some crystal kelp. Although the kelp usually grows in the ocean... sometimes murlocs collect it. See if the murlocs near Crystal Lake have any.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Jasperlode MineElwynn Forest · Level 1-30

    Thanks to you we know the Fargodeep Mine is infested with kobolds. Now we need a scout to investigate the more distant Jasperlode Mine. Explore Jasperlode and confirm any kobold presence. To reach the mine, travel east along the road until you reach the Tower of Azora.
