StorylineTwilight Highlands, step 17 of 236
Rewards13g 74s, 4,800 XP

Description

Are you goin' by way of the Verrall river delta? I've got a tip that'll help your men here... and my bird! When water elementals carve their way through rock, they create a peculiar kind of muck. It dries hard as stone but carries with it the rejuvenating power of water. You make a cast out of that muck and broken bones knit together like iron. Bring some of that muck to Talaa, your shaman downstairs. She'll know what to do with it!

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Wings Over HighbankTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    Aye, look! I think she's perkin' up already. Okay Mr. Alliance fancy-pants <class>. Is that your base I see on the shore? "Highbank" you say. Can me and my bird hunker down there until she's better? Hop on! We'll fly together back to Highbank!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Any Portal in a StormTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    Our friends in the Earthen Ring have been trying to open portals back to Stormwind, with no luck. But Thordun here tells me he might just have the key. The crazed water elementals in the nearby Verrall River Delta have been sent into a frenzy.
