The initial Quest text from Calia contains two grammatical errors in the sentence "We wish to provide assistance in purging the Scarlet's and return the Gilneans lands to them."

"Scarlet's" should be plural, not possessive.
"Gilneans" should be plural-possessive, not plural.

It really bugs me when the company I pay can't be bothered to proof read.

This is the town directly south of Shadowfang Keep. Southwest of Forsaken Point.

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.
