Objectives
Escort Arei to safety, then speak with Kayneth Stillwind in Forest Song, in eastern Ashenvale.
- Help Arei get to Safety
Description
Felwood was once a peaceful and serene land... Until the legion[sic] took hold. The infernals, destruction, chaos...
The skull of Gul'dan ensured that none were spared here. All fell to the corruption.
Even now, as a spirit, I still find myself trapped, bearing the suffering of this land. Help me find my way home. Please, <name>, tell me you will lead an ancient spirit away from here, where I may finally rest.
Once I am free, seek out Kayneth Stillwind, a druid that resides in Forest Song, to the east.
