Ursius Flank, Bear Oiled Chainmail, Morcott's Bow, 31g 50s, 6,200 XPDescription
I've heard it said that you are what you eat. I don't know if I believe that, but if it's true... I'd prefer to eat the strongest creature that I can find. Ursius is the largest bear in Winterspring. He eats first when his pack of shardtooth brings down a chimaera or an owlbear. He claims the most comfortable cave in the shardtooth-held lands. And he has... considerable influence with the shardtooth females. He is my kind of bear. I want to eat him. His cave is near the maulers. Good luck!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Pride of the Dinner Table
Alright kid, time to head out further into the field! This haul's nice and good, but further to the west you'll find much bigger kitties. The pride watchers and huntresses have a lot more muscle on them, and it makes AMAZING burger patties. They sell like crazy!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Bird of Legend
Local legend tells of a mighty owl that circles the mountaintops like death on wings. They named her Deathwing. Soon afterwards, they were told that that name was already taken. So they settled on a moniker that evoked a similar sense of horror and dread: Hell-Hoot.
