A Hero's Welcome

Speak with Shandris Feathermoon in Feathermoon Stronghold.

Description

<name>, General Shandris Feathermoon would like to speak with you personally. No doubt she wants to thank you for your service to the Stronghold, but I do know that she also wants to talk to you about the insect creatures that you and Raschal faced in southern Feralas. The reports of those Zukk'ash insects are... frightening, to say the least.

General Feathermoon is waiting for you in the main compound.

I didnt have to escort the NPC out. He said "thank you for saving me..." and all that then he said "Since you have bought me some time I can stealth out from here" and he said that right after I let him out of the pod. Not a hard quest, just a bit hard to find the nest. It starts with "The Missing Courier" quest.

The quest before where you just poke the guy out of the cocoon and he poofs for 4k exp was nice, but just walking over from one house to another for another 6k and then 200 rep with Alliance is just.... wow.&nbsp

The dagger sucked for me, though.&nbsp Allready had THREE daggers on my person that were better (and had better stats/procs, mind you), so I got the staff and sold it for 2g 13s.&nbsp I think the dagger was only worth around 60-ish so I didn't pick it.

Coincidentially, my -real- reward was the Scorpashi Shoulder Pads that happened to drop from one of the three Zukk'ash Tunnelers I killed around Raschal's cocoon.&nbsp New farming locale, anyone? )

It's a 4-5 part quest involving locating the courier.&nbsp Solo'd it at 44, so it's not too hard.

Starts at Latronicus Moonspear who sends you to Ginro Hearthkindle

It seems that the stage of the quest where you rescue the lost elf is bugged. Many people I've spoken to have had trouble, and so have i. When I dig through the nest, it gives me the quest and the "Thank you for saving me..." but no NPC spawns for me to escort out.

You have to go through a series of chain quests - the very first one of this chain is called "The Missing Courier"

To Ayenon in the nottom post (it seems i can't reply to posts :S):

I have the same problem. But look at the text in the quest"

No doubt she wants to thank you for your service to the Stronghold, but I do know that she also wants to talk to you about the insect creatures that you and Raschal faced in southern Feralas.

So there must be some prereq quest, even though Anonymous says there isn't. Following the name Raschal i found the quest "The missing courier" that starts at Latronicus Moonspear who's standing next to Shandris in Feathermoon. I'll try if it works :)
