What to do
Description
Now that the demon gates have been destroyed, the power of the forest must be replenished. The Forest Heart must be retrieved! Gaivan Shadewalker, a powerful druid of the claw, has gone southwest, past Felfire Hill, to the Dor'Danil Barrow Den. Therein rests the Forest Heart. It is protected by the druids of Ashenvale deep below the ground. Seek out Gaivan and tell him of what has transpired, {name}.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Closure is Only Natural
Through the ground I can feel more demons being brought into our world. Soon there will be too many and we will be overrun without hope of turning them back. Take this piece of me and return to Demon Fall Canyon and Demon Fall Ridge, south of Felfire Hill.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Insane Druids
The druids are dead, killed by their leaders who were driven insane by the Horde tainting the Forest Heart! I can feel the corruption even from here and I dare go no further. While I am too well attuned to Ashenvale and the Forest Heart, you...
