  1. Travel to Dustwallow Marsh: I went from Ironforge to Menethil Harbor to Theramore to (Dreadmurk Shore) Dustwallow Marsh.

  3. Search for Clues: /way 66 18 - on a rock, west of Alcaz Island

  5. Locate the Cave and Investigate: Dive down - at /way 73.8 8.4 - slightly west of the northern-most tip of Alcaz Island

Once you've entered the cave, you'll see a platform and the steps that follow are easy enough.

It took me a while to find the cave. Swim down at 74,42 8,84 and you will see some underwater rock formation. Keep swimming until there is no more rock fomrations and then swim towards Alcaz Island. You will see the change on your mini-map and you are at the right place. I recommend Elixir of Water Breathing or something similar because you will need to swim for a while.

Description

<Samuel puts down the journal and looks back up at you.> While trying to figure out where the shrines reside, I came across an entry that mentioned him exploring an area that sounds very similar to Dustwallow Marsh. He mentions hiding something of great importance there. It's a long shot, given when this earthen roamed Azeroth, but perhaps if you were to retrace his final steps you may find something. I'll mark the location on your map.

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.
