Description

There are many ways to keep the gardens safe, and we have allies to help us. A few Ancients rest dormant in these glades. They are giant trees sworn to defend the forest and the creatures within. Use this fragment of my breath to wake them.

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.

  • Seeds for the FutureOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    The Primalists' attack left its mark on the Emerald Gardens. I wish to see it grow and flower once again. In this part of the garden, we have an overabundance of lashers. Their seeds can be used by the Sisters of the Garden to cultivate vegetation in those damaged glades.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Gerithus's ResearchOhn'ahran Plains · Level 36-80

    The green dragonflight has many duties, not solely in the tending of the garden. We also defend the Emerald Dream, and some extend their attention even further. My son Gerithus, for example, has always had interest in all kinds of magic.
