Objectives
Earthmender Norsala wants you to use the elemental sapta and cleansing totem from the Earthen Ring Supplies to subdue 20 Agitated Fire Spirits.
- Fire Spirits Subdued
[Earthen Ring Supplies] (provided)
Description
The elements are restless, <class>. The earthquakes that plague the land and the fires that threaten to burn down Orgrimmar are not normal. The Earthen Ring are convinced that we must put the elements to rest before they tear Azeroth apart. We need your help, <name>.
I will give you a bag of Earthen Ring supplies. In it you will find two items, elemental sapta and a cleansing totem. Use the sapta to see into the elemental world. Then use the cleansing totem to subdue the agitated fire spirits.
Rewards
You will receive: 13 23 (at 80)
Progress
Have you subdued the elements yet?
Completion
Well done <name>. But for every element that is subdued another one takes it's[sic] place. The solution we have here is merely a stopgap. Hopefuly my brethren in the Earthen Ring are making more headway.
Notes
Earthen Ring Supplies contain 
[Elemental Sapta] and 
[Cleansing Totem]. Quaff the Elemental Sapta, then mount up and look for friendly Agitated Fire Spirits. Use the Cleansing Totem on them, which acts like a ground-targeted AoE.
Currently, the event ends at this point. A followup is expected.
After its removal, the quest was internally updated to involve Gavan Grayfeather.
During development, this quest was named Elemental Research and had the following placeholder description: "I'll give you a sack of shaman stuff. Use the elemental sapta to enter the spirit and use the totem on the Agitated Earth Elementals."
