And there was the quest to recover stolen goods from a wagon that had been raided by some ghouls.
But most importantly, we got a quest from the Wanted poster to kill two particularly nasty Scourge minions -- Luzran and Knucklerot -- who patrol along the roads and down the Dead Scar. This quest was very highly red to Neriad at her level and said it required three people to complete. However, a group asked in general chat if anyone wanted to join their party to kill them, so Devilwolf and I joined the group. As you can see, Luzran is a level 21 elite, and except for the level 18 paladin who tanked him for us, everyone in the party was level 14 and below. However, a party of four paladins and one priest can outlast just about any fight.
Luzran soon died (as quickly as a group of paladins and priests can kill anything), and after searching the Dead Scar and wandering the roads for a bit, we ran into Knucklerot and took him out, too.
The reward was a fantastic ring... whose screenshot apparently didn't turn out. But it had some int and stamina and some crit rating which at Neriad's level was equivalent to about +2% spell crit. There was also an equivalent melee ring as a reward, too.
By this time, Neriad was already Honored with Tranquillien, so she picked up a +2 int +2 spirit sash.
Back to those pesky night elves, since Neriad couldn't find out exactly what the night elves were up to, Dame Auriferous sent her to the island just off the coast where the night elf ship lay to see if some documents could be found there that would shed some light on the matter.
Neriad and her partner, Devilwolf, did indeed find some documents. More interesting, though, was that they found that the night elf ship was of a new design not seen prior to the expansion. Interestingly, as fancy as the design was, there was no way to go below its deck.
By this time, a lot of the map was starting to be revealed.
Neriad and Devilwolf left the night elves' island (the one just north of Windrunner Village), and swung around to kill some plagued murlocs (no, you can't get away from killing murlocs) and then helped clear out some of Goldenmist Village.
By this time, both Neriad and Devilwolf were long overdue for some training, so they both flew off to Silvermoon, but they agreed to meet back in a few minutes, because they had finally figured out what the night elves were up to.
UP NEXT: Night elves, trolls, and zombies, oh my!
