Description
Though the journal devolves into dark ramblings written in hurried scribbles, one entry stands out: "Ulthalesh. The name rings in my head. I can hear it calling, but where? "The spirits... the very land here is tied to it. It is no wonder we would so often get lost in this place. The forces pull my compass point in every direction... "Perhaps if it had a stronger pull, the compass could show the way..."
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Disturbing the Past
This place is where the merchant, Ariden, set up camp while he was trying to ply his dubious wares to the sorcerer Medivh. It has remained strangely untouched for all this time, which leads me to believe it may still have a connection to its former owner. Help me search the camp.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Fate of Deadwind
The journal mentions a "stronger pull" for the compass. If the spirits of this place are indeed tied to it, they may serve as the pull we need. I've come upon several locations in the pass where restless spirits tend to appear.

Ulthalesh, the Deadwind Harvester has 9 steps, from Ulthalesh, the Deadwind Harvester to The Power Possessed.
