Description
The greenwarden was a local legend. Many thought him a myth... the plant-man, protector of the wetlands. The night elves came here just to find him, and after they succeeded they ended up settling down to the east. They've got a whole grove over there to watch over the greenwarden, and I've heard he's been acting up, enraged by the flooding and damage to the land. The elves are good people. They could use the help of someone like you. If you get a chance, go tell the head druid what you've done here.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- The Angerfang Menace
When we hauled up here to get away from the raptors, we put ourselves right next to a whole slew of Dragonmaw orcs! I've heard the stories in Menethil, how the Dragonmaw are even cruder barbarians than other orcs, how they strangle black dragons with their bare hands...
- Strike the Earth!
In case you didn't notice, the land here in the Wetlands is pretty messed up. Floods, earthquakes... and on top of it all, even the ground's got a wild hair now.
Steps, storylines and map placement from the client’s QuestLine, prerequisite and QuestPOI data; neighbouring quest text is Blizzard’s own (quest API), shortened to its opening sentences.
