Outlander Deston, a member of the Qeynos Guard alarmed by the assembly of gnoll packs, has made his way into Darkpaw Warrens with my help. He now suspects that some sort of spellwork is behind the cooperation we are seeing between gnoll packs, and has tasked me with exploring this line of suspicion.
My investigation into the assembly of gnoll packs in Darkpaw Warrens has revealed they are being unified and motivated by a particularly charismatic gnoll, High Shaman Darkpaw.
The gnollish battlegrounds, known as Culling Fields, found southwest of Sabertooth Burrow, is a likely place to find evidence of any crowd-controlling spells.
Enter the Culling Grounds
Collect discarded weapons in search of evidence
The discarded weapons found in Culling Fields didn't seem to hold any evidence of a crowd control spell having been cast recently.
My presence has not gone unnoticed! One of the gnolls has called out to me from somewhere in Culling Grounds.
Speak with the Splitpaw gnoll who called out in Culling Grounds
Arruth Whitepatch, an elder of pack Splitpaw, credits a divine miracle, not a crowd-controlling spell with uniting the packs.
Arruth Whitepatch spoke of a heady smell of incense lingering in Dustpaw Burrow. It is the same smell that accompanied the miracle that unified the packs.
Search for the source of smell in Dustpaw Burrow
There are a number of burning braziers throughout Dustpaw Burrow. They could be burning mind-altering spell potions!
The gnoll devotion braziers throughout Dustpaw Burrow could be burning mind-altering spell potions! They must be stopped.
Destroy gnoll devotion braziers in Dustpaw Burrow
Destroy one more gnoll devotion brazier
Defeat the Sabertooth scribe attacker
While destroying the gnoll devotion braziers throughout Dustpaw Burrow I was attacked by a gnoll scribe. They met their fate, and I found a scroll of useful information.
According to the gnoll scribe, Harclave's weapon should be displayed somewhere in Splitpaw Burrow. I should seek it out.
Find and examine Harclave's weapon on display in Splitpaw Burrow
I found an ancient weapon suspected to have been held by Harclave, and used as a rallying object for the gnoll packs.
Outlander Deston has made his way further in the Darkpaw Warrens. He's now standing by the terraporter in Splitpaw Burrow.
