For the Horde version, see Quest:Rifle the Bodies (Horde).

Rifle the Bodies starts the main blue dragonflight questline in Dragonblight.

There are three breadcrumbs pointing to Stars' Rest: from Wintergarde Keep (A Disturbance In The West) and Moa'ki Harbor (Your Presence is Required at Stars' Rest) in Dragonblight, and from Death's Stand (The Lost Courier) in Borean Tundra, all of which are optional.

Objectives Edit

Find the Moonrest Gardens Plans and return them to the Image of Archmage Modera at Stars' Rest.

•  [Moonrest Gardens Plans]

Description Edit

The Moonrest Gardens to the southwest were the final resting place of a noble group of Highborne elves. It was also a powerful ley line nexus.

The blue dragonflight used a magical device they call a surge needle to destroy that nexus, freeing the power to redirect at their will.

I need more information and I hope that you will get it for me.

After the upheaval at the ruins, the ghosts of the Highborne rose up and decimated half of the mage hunters present. Go rifle their corpses for clues.

Rewards Edit

You will receive: 5

Progress Edit

You have returned. What did you uncover?

Completion Edit

Curious. They seek an accord with the ethereum. The ethereals could prove a powerful ally for Malygos and his madness.

This will not do!
