Description

My name is Myzrael. I am a princess of the earth, and my captors, the giants, have trapped me deep beneath the Arathi Highlands. These crystal shards are the only way I can speak with the surface world.

Please help me. Allies of the giants, the Drywhisker kobolds, have a shard like this one in their Drywhisker Gorge, to the east. To power the cluster, you must gather motes of Myzrael from the kobolds and apply them to it.

I beg you, <name>, aid me!

If you can't find the pathway up to the cave, try finding a tree at 71,41 and then face the hills. There will be your path up to the cave. Watch out for kobold hiding behind bushes and ambushing you. There are plenty of kobold outside in the hills if you can't find enough in the caves.
