Mildewed Ransom Note

Mildewed Ransom Note was added to Alyx's call board on 13 November, as part of Guest Relations. It reads:

Mildewed Ransom Note

Take a trek from molten peak to where rain retreats.
Then from where the groves whisper to a hold of timber.
Now embarking on an old feather moon retrace your steps to find your stolen treats.

Last year's Secrets of Azeroth had a series of clues across the Barrens for  [Mimiron's Jumpjets] that eventually read "Top of Thunder Peak". A Potion of Truth is found at [47.9, 38.4] atop the Thunder Peak in Ashenvale, one of the locations for the Mimiron's Booster Part located in Felwood. Picking up the potion grants a 30-minute buff that will be lost upon leaving Kalimdor, hearthing, or teleporting.

The note mentions four locations. Equip the thinking cap atop Thunder Peak to reset it to (0, 0) and travel to the small moonwell at [62.1, 51.0] inside the tower at Raynewood Retreat to measure (81, -49). Take off the thinking cap and fly to the small moonwell at [44.0, 28.4] at Whisperwind Grove in Felwood. Ignore the The Sixth Clue arrow, as that was for Secrets of Azeroth. Re-equip the Thinking Cap to reset it to (0, 0) again and head northeast to Timbermaw Hold. Stop at [64.3, 10.4] at the mouth of the cave to record (122, 72).

With those vectors recorded, return to Thunder Peak, drink the Potion of Truth, and fly down to the Ruins of Feathermoon on Sardor Isle off the coast of Feralas. Starting from the end of the dock at [31.1, 40.2] on the northern shore of the island (the embarking text from the note is the clue here), reset the thinking cap once more to (0, 0), then head to (81, -49) or [42.9, 50.9] off the Forgotten Coast, reset the thinking cap once more and fly to (122, 72) or [60.4, 35.4] to find the  [Mildewed Celebration Crate] tucked in a corner in Eldreth Row in the exterior of Dire Maul. The crate is only visible while the Potion of Truth buff is active.

The potion was found earlier on 13 November before the ransom note was posted, and the crate itself was spotted on 1 November while scouring the world with the  [Idol of Ohn'ahra] before it was properly hidden.
