Description

<name>, I require your assistance...

I hope no one was expecting me to craft, subdue the whelp, heal, and teach these children all at once! Multitasking like that is certainly overrated.

Now, you can start by using those flowers. I'll need a couple minutes to prepare myself to heal the proto-whelp.

Hopefully, the children will find this incident... instructional.

This quest doesn't have a world marker for where to do the objective.

If you're looking for where to go to treat the whelping, it's at Dragonscale Basecamp near the edge of the cliff behind the reknown tent.

You're looking for Tyrgon from the Explorer-in-training questline around 49, 81.
