TheWoWDBTarindrella should be in the mouth of the cave. She was not there when I first walked up and I almost went inside to try to find her, but she showed up after hanging around just outside for half a minute or so.

Learning the Word
I assume that if you're here reading this comment, it's because you can't seem to find Tarindrella near the cave. It's ok, you just need to wait for a while for her to appear.
It's really annoying.

Description
I must ask something more dangerous of you. Strange news has traveled to me through the whisperings of the forest spirits. The mysterious woodland protector, Tarindrella, has returned to Shadowglen again. The dryad's presence has not been felt in the forests since before the blessing of Teldrassil. Something is surely amiss if she has journeyed back to this land. Seek out Tarindrella in the Shadowthread cave to the north. It is dangerous, but we will be prepared with this antidote just in case.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Precious Waters
Tenaron Stormgrip oversees all that happens in this glade. He presides at the top of Aldrassil. If you look to your south, you will see the underside of the ramp that leads up to him. Ascend this ramp and complete your training. It was wonderful to have met you, <name>.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Webwood Corruption
I'd hoped to never return to Teldrassil for such grim business. I'd hoped that its corruption had been wiped away completely. Something foul lingers. These spiders suffer much more deeply from the corruption than the other nearby wildlife.
