Theocritus' Retrieval

Bring the Faded Shadowhide Pendant to Theocritus the Mage.
Faded Shadowhide Pendant
Provided Item:
Faded Shadowhide Pendant

Description

<You hear a disembodied voice...>

Do not be alarmed. I am Theocritus, High Mage of Tower Azora in Elwynn Forest. The pendant you are holding is a method of communication between the Shadowhide Gnolls and their master, Morganth.

Through months of research, I believe I too can communicate through these pendants. If you can hear this message, then my spell was a success.

Bring me this pendant and I will reward you for the service.

Glowing Shadowhide Pendant is a rare drop off shadow hide gnolls. If one drops, everyone in the party can loot.

I Think the item will only drop after you have completed another quest. Once me and my partner finished all quests in redridge, we helped joined a group to kill some gnolls, and it droped for me, and then the next kill droped for my partner, that is after we have killed around 50 of them that day allready.

There are NO prerequisites to get the pendant to drop. Mine dropped randomly while out questing, and I was nowhere near completing all quests in Redridge lol.

but i never did this quest, my guess is that it's a "go talk to this guy" kind of quest, I got the string directly from the Tower of Azora. hope this helps.

Yay! no more gnoll killing!
