Description

I'd have given up had I not noticed... He's a Thistlehead. I couldn't place it at first but the signs are all there...

Now if we could get our hands on some bloodthistle, we'd be in business.

In my travels, I met a shady Broken in Shattrath named Tobias.

Tobias made a business of trading bloodthistle to blood elves for rotten arakkoa eggs.

Directly west of here are arakkoa ruins. Search them for an egg and head to the lower city of Shattrath. That's where you'll find Tobias.

Progress

<Tobias raises an eyebrow.>

Bloodthistle? Never heard of it... Are you a peacekeeper? You know you'd have to tell me if you were... I've got rights!

Completion

You've got a rotten arakkoa egg? Well why didn't you say so! I think we can do business.

<Tobias smiles, exposing a mouthful of decay and filth.>

Reward

7 Gold 59 Silver
