ObjectivesEdit

Slay the Chillwind Lieutenant summoned from the Ice Stone located on the water elemental's island in western Stranglethorn Vale, then return to the Earthen Ring Elder in a capital city.

•  Chillwind Lieutenant slain

DescriptionEdit

We must act to preserve the balance! Time is against us.

Neptulon has long had a base of operations on an island in western Stranglethorn. There, the Twilight Cult has set up ice stones to communicate with the Tidehunter's realm, much like they do in Silithus. Much as I am loath to do this, the spirits will understand - you must summon one of this Ahune's lieutenants and destroy it. Perhaps this forestalling action will be enough...

RewardsEdit

You will receive:  [Burning Blossom] x10 and 15
