Description

The spirits of the damned haunt the coast. In life they were brave and noble soldiers of the Alliance, but in death they are cursed - bound to this world until the end of days. We must discover the source of their anguish if we are to free them! To the southeast, on the Eldritch Heights, you will find a rare herb known as murkweed. It is murkweed that I will use to concoct an elixir that will allow you temporary entry into the world of the forgotten. Go now and gather the weed.

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.

  • Orik Trueheart and the Forgotten ShoreDragonblight · Level 15-30

    I have gazed upon the orb and seen the path that you must walk, <name>. Many years ago an atrocity was committed upon the shores of Dragonblight. The act itself remains shrouded in darkness, but I am certain that your destiny lies south, amidst the ruins of the Forgotten Shore.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Forgotten TaleDragonblight · Level 15-30

    The toxins in the murkweed elixir will render you unconscious. So powerful is the effect of the murkweed that even your spirit will be fooled, allowing you to temporarily enter the world of the dead. Once a spirit, you must speak to the ghostly denizens of the Forgotten Shore.
