Objectives

Bring Lorvarius' wind-devil to the clouds of red mist in the Crimson Expanse, near the water, and then return with a sample.

• Gather a sample of the red mist

Description

I'm no druid, but some of these mushrooms do not look to be naturally occuring. I know that our Stone Lord friend over there is eager to blame this on exposure to Azeroth, but I suspect more domestic causes.

I saw some clouds of red mist to the northeast, near the water's edge. They seemed to be spurring new growth in their wake. Take one of my wind-devils with you and get a sample from those clouds. You may have to stay close to the ground to spot them.

Rewards

You will receive: 8 60

Progress

The fighting at the temple has quieted since you left. Whatever impression you're making, it seems to have helped at least that much.

Completion

You let the mist touch your skin? I hope there weren't any adverse side efects.

Notes

Fly north close to the ground and look for some red mist, then fly into it. The Red Mist "coats organic creatures in a film that makes them sprout into plant-like creatures over time." It also ticks for 450 to 550 Nature damage every 3 seconds for 30 seconds, increases damage dealt by 50%, and is "quite smelly".

Progression

This is part of the quest chain to recover the lower fragment of the World Pillar, the third of three major Deepholm questlines.

Required: Prior quest chains ending with  [30-35] The World Pillar Fragment (upper fragment) and  [30-35] The Middle Fragment.
