Not only is the [item=193917] useable by simply using a mouseover and click on the injured drakonids (a big quality of life improvement for this type of quest, from a recent patch) ... but also my rogue was able to heal the drakonids without breaking stealth, nice!

Description

Commander Lethanak was insightful, as always. We will need the help of our most veteran guards to stop their threat. Rallying them was the perfect task for a young cadet like Sendrax, but she may need support. Sendrax's path will take her towards the west, which may have been overwhelmed by this rising threat. They will need aid as well. Take this concoction and give them your support.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Obsidian CitadelThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    <At a glance, this seems to be internal communications between djaradin camps. The words 'Obsidian Citadel' leap out at you. Perhaps Wrathion would be interested in seeing this.>

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Chasing SendraxThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    Cadet Sendrax came through here not long ago. She relayed Commander Lethanak's orders for all drakonid to rally back at the Life Pools. Our whole defensive regiment set off in that direction not long after. But our scouts were out on patrol in the old ruins, so she headed in there to rally them too.
