The Ahn'Qiraj event was a one-time event.

If that were truly meant to be the follow-up and the final ending of the quest line, the quests leading up to it would be disabled after the event closed.

However, this is not an event quest.&nbsp You can still give up the trinket and do this quest line after Ahn'Qiraj opens, thus there must be something else.

Maybe it's not in the game yet.&nbsp Or maybe it's so well hidden, so ingenious, that the tens of thousands or more of level 60 players just haven't found it.

Maybe the GMs tell you that quest chains are "incomplete."&nbsp What does that mean?&nbsp Does it mean that this is the last node?&nbsp Not necessarily.&nbsp Every quest chain in the game is theoretically incomplete, as it is always possible to add more quests to the end of existing chains.&nbsp The Eranikus quest chain could very well be "incomplete," but still have 10 more quests after this one that all of you just haven't found yet.

Never give up!&nbsp Trust your instincts!

(That said, I'd be VERY interested to know exactly what text was displayed in the game when Eranikus's spirit returned during that event.)

Loc: (67,27)

Chal Fairwind guards Umbranse the Spiritspeaker

She is a 53 Night Elf.

Level 60 players can completely avoid her and just walk along the walls of Umbranse's hut.

Issue Reported:The In Eranikus' Own Words quest line ends with Umbranse the spirit speaker saying he needs some device to help Eranikus but does not give another quest or any hints besides somthing about needing the help of some one who does not suffer the limits of age. This quest line appears incomplete or the NPC is bugging and not giving me the quest for the next step. At this point I am out of the trinket I give up for this quest and cannot complete the line.

We are aware of the situation you reported, and we are currently working on a solution.&nbsp Please check the World of Warcraft website (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com) for future updates and corrections.&nbsp We appreciate your patience.

As of march 17, still a dead end :(

Emerald dream EU

Do you get any rep out of doign the rest of the quest? If so..... from who?

Check out the images here.

Eranikus is back with patch 1.9. And he's pissed off.
So it looks like this quest might possibly continue now.

I hope he remembers how people tormented him while he was still in the trinket. :)

Here it is Patch 2.01 and this quest is still unfinished. Much like The Missing Diplomat chain. I've read up all over, and heard some interesting things. Some lead to Videre Elixir, some lead to Sleeping Night Elves. I still have both the Oathstone and the Chained Essence in my bag on me at this moment.

I'd like to get rid of them for the bagspace, but I dont wanna miss out on what may lead to a huge Emerald Dream event. I'd like to know how this quest ends. But I guess we'll have to wait until Blizzard decides to end it.

As for my own thoughts... I'm wondering if maybe you have to speak to someone you'd never think of in a million years, but is so obvious.
In my mind I keep thinking, Druids walk the Emerald Dream. But the only few I can think of at this moment are Malfurion, Cenarius, and Remulos (moonglade). There are the Stormrage Barrow Dens in Moonglade that seem empty. Malfurions last name was Stormrage, I'mm gonna try visiting it in my wisp form and see what I can dig up.

Edit: After killing myself in Lake Elune'ara and searching the entire moonglade (mainly the Barrow Dens) I came across nothing. Even the great bear spirit was missing from the spirit realm.

Umbranse the Spiritspeaker: Itharius was wise to send you to me. While he is not dead as you understand death, Eranikus will soon give us advice in his own words. For now though, I cannot directly help you... at least not yet.

I will lend my skill at death-speaking to you, but first I need the help of one who - unlike me - is not limited by the frailties of old age. My most potent augury device has been taken from me against my will, and unless I have it back we will be at a loss to help Eranikus.

Any 60th lvl players check this out if its lvl dependant?

Finally ended quest just east of moon horrer den. I agree it was a nice trinket, great surprise in a battle of more than one.

so if it is to be more in this questline...what about those who have sold the trinket or destroyed it...supose you cant do it then?

This quest as of patch 2.3.2 now give 6100 exp upon completion. \

I was REALLY looking forward to doing this quest! I always have had a facination with Dragons and out of ALL the dragonflight's Ysera was my favorate. Even though all she does is sleep lol. Even named my first guild after her! Any clue on how to continue this? Said we couldin patch notes. And I heard that this Timolain's Phylactery is needed.

When I meet Umbranse he didnt give me a quest. Just some hardto figure out clue on where to go or what to get. Makes it harder that it doesnt make a quest log.

quest line did not get extended in patch 1.7

the line blizz was talking about ended with the final tablets and was completly unrelated to this quest line

so 1 less uncompleted quest line but unfortunately its not this one

Something I just realized turning this quest in on a second character. Ubranse is talking about Anachronos or Nozdormu when he speaks of needing the help of someone not affected by time. Has anyone done this and gotten exalted with the Brood and gone back?

As of April 2006 the quest is still dead-ending at Umbranse. No clue as to whether you have to have faction or experience or wearing the right type of underware to finish this.

This quest is currently working as intended, if you feel it could be improved upon please visit our suggestion forums, the links to which can be found at http://forums.wow-europe.com/

i replied 'oh! so i've completed the quest line here already?'

he told me ' the quest chain does end rather abruptly, i'm afraid that is all the information i can give you as giving out specific information to players on quests can be seen as an unfair advantage over other players.'
then
'Perhaps there are other players in the game who can shed light on your situation' and maybe there are some World of Warcraft related websites that will give you your answers....'

so i said - aha where i am is not the end of the questline then :( '
then
'i'm sure some one will be able to give you answers soon' and added a smily face

here is what he says when you go to turn in the quest

"Itharius was wise to send you to me. While he is not dead as you understand death, Erankis will soon give us advice in his own words. For now though, I cannot directly help you... at least not yet.

I will lend you my skill at death-speaking to you, but first I need the help of he who-unlike me- is not limited by the frailties of old age. My most potent augary device has been taken from me against my will, and unless i get it back, we will be at a loss to help eranikus."

hope it helps

well i spoke to a GM and he/she told me that the quest is working fine, the Gm said that is does end a bit abrupt and strange, but that is how it is supposed to be, the Gm also said that in the future a chain might be added. so my guess is that they just don't want to admit that it was broken :)

so well mystery solved i guess

Yeah, if anyone can post what he says it'd help, I didnt bother reading it because I thought he'd just give another quest..

(Quest #6030) an Argent Dawn quest that mentions Umbranse. Any connections here? I brought the book to Umbranse and he had nothing else to say.

EDIT:
5/19 GM confirmed that this quest is incomplete--not yet implemented.

I am pretty sure, if not from ZG, that this quest chain is related to the 4 new Green Dragons that will be put in a future patch, randomly in Azeroth.

Eranikus is part of the Green Flight patch. He is corrupted. The Dream world is corrupted. The 4 Green Dragons are corrupted as well.

Maybe.....

Unless you truly don't need it, keep the trinket. I made the mistake of running this quest and losing a decent trinket to my 54 pally, all - apparently - for naught.

I wish I'd read this thread first...

Attainable for the horde too. Atleast for me. Change the quests information! :)

Just completed this chain after installing the exp
4200 xp @ lv60, no further chain as of yet from this guy
Also should change to both like fella below me said, I am Horde and got this q np

Ending the quest and he says this at the end:
"My most potent augary device has been taken from me against my will, and unless i get it back, we will be at a loss to help eranikus."

i think the device is he talking about is the book from this quest:
(Quest #6030) thing is that i have already done that quest... so i can't get the book, if anyone can still accept that quest keep the book and go see if you can talk to Umbranse the Spiritspeaker again... report back if you can

I went and visited the Bloodelf, went and visited the Human and then the trail was left dry. But after I rode off near Winterspring, some Orange Text came up and mentioned something about Moonglade. So I flew on over to Moonglade and more Orange Text popped up. But that's as far as I got. It mentioned something about Necro or Nex something...something related to the Undead. I thought If I traveled to Eastern or Western Plaguelands something would happen, but nothing.

So far I haven't seen any other Orange Text telling me where I should head to next.

Redeeming Eranikus is a part of the AQ opening of the portals quest, il post a piece that ive copy/pasted from a guide on that part of the AQ quest:

6b) The Green Flight

This was cool. I went to see the sleeping shade of Eranikus in ST. As soon as I entered the room, Malfurion Stormrage phased in between me and the dragon. He told me that Eranikus has been corrupted by the Old Gods and that I needed to cleanse him in order to recover the scepter shard. He sends me to speak with an agent of his outside of Darnassus(!). I did that. The agent sent me to Keeper Remulos in Moonglade. Remulos told me of Eranikus's corruption, and how he wants nothing more than revenge upon Malfurion and upon the Moonglade. He might be lured into a trap, but it would require the recovery of four shards of the corrupted dream, from each of the four dragon portals around the world. Three of them are held by the dragonkin near the portals (raredrops from the dragonkin they do not drop from the green dragons themselves). The fourth is in Duskwood, which has no trash, but where a demonic Twilight Corruptor awaited me, phasing in as I approached the moonwell there. He was tough (40-man raid mob), but we took him out. The drop rate on the other fragments is awful -- it took 3.5 hours of nonstop farming in Feralas to get that one, and 1.5+ at Hinterlands. Ashenvale has so few dragonkin that it also proved problematic with the new lengthened respawns, but at last we had all four shards.

I brought them back to Keeper Remulos in the Moonglade, and he used them to lay a trap for Eranikus. Eranikus has been in the corrupted Emerald Dream, twisted by the will of the Old Gods, brooding and yearning for revenge against Malfurion and the Cenarion Circle. The fragments were used to open a portal into the heart of the Dream, and Eranikus emerged over the Moonglade lake. With hundreds of people gathered to defend Moonglade (and to watch), an epic battle was waged against dozens of Nightmare Phantasms that emerged from the portal, as Eranikus hovered menacingly in the skies. Aeternus, Aftermath, Advent, LoH, Exordium, and countless others, all turned out to assist us, and I thank them. As the phantasms were defeated, Eranikus landed to do the job himself. He was controlled, and we began to wear him down. As the fight went on, Tyrande arrived from Darnassus (the point of my trip to Darnassus had been to covertly notify her) with a half-dozen Priestesses of the Moon riding white tigers. They healed the army as we continued to rain blows on Eranikus, and Tyrande and Remulos fought against him side-by-side. As he weakened further, Tyrande channelled the powers of Elune in a prayer to redeem the cursed dragon. He thrashed and resisted, but ultimately the light of Elune overcame him. He suddenly ceased fighting. The dragon vanished, and in its place lay a crumpled night-elf on the ground. He stood up and haltingly apologized for all the harm he had wrought, and left to attempt to begin to make amends for his actions. Before leaving, however, he entrusted me with the green scepter shard that Anachronos had given him long ago. I returned it to Anachronos.

horde can turn the quest into Umbranse but the quest series isn't finished yet ....till a content patch
