Truly, this is a fascinating object. It shows indications of being much more than a mere carving or sculpture. While our elders may be interested in observing this artifact, the Earthen Ring are who would carry the most wisdom for our buried ruins and forgotten lands. Seek out Muln Earthfury, a direct approach is fitting for the gravity of what you carry. You can find him and other elders of the Earthen Ring council at the Skywatcher Plateau in northwest Mulgore.

I'd train you if I could, but you're too much for me. Tell you what: go talk to the tauren Una in the northwestern shops of Thunder Bluff's central plateau. She's got some real talent.

If you desire, in addition to training, I have it within my power to erase the knowledge of your talents from your mind. Be warned that every time you undergo this procedure the more difficult it is to perform, and therefore the more expensive it becomes.

Where would you like to fly to?

How may I be of service?

You will need to find Nat Pagle in Dustwallow Marsh to get any better than you are currently.

adventurer, how may I further your training in the eyes of the Earth Mother?

Welcome, my brother. If you are here to train, then I would be delighted to teach you. It never hurts to reaffirm one's place within what I like to call the Great Balance. As preservers of this balance, we must strive to continually keep our minds clear and our hearts strong. Training helps us in this regard.

What are you looking for?

Which trainer do you seek?

Seek out Turak Runetotem in the Hall of Elders on the Elder Rise.

The spirits have guided you to me. How may I be of service?

Which profession?

Which trainer do you seek?

Go to the cleft of shadow and seek out Spellweaver Mon'ye there, near the center of the district.

Would you rather trust your goods with a goblin?

I walk this road alone, seeking ways to defend my honor and rid this land of our enemies. What can I do for you, adventurer?

As the wind on the plains, you are always welcome here.

In order to draw upon my spirit, you will need to undergo a trail. To understand and respect my form you must prove that you can embody cunning, stealth, and if you should be cornered, ferocity. In the Barrow Dens just east of here, are three relics you must acquire. They are guarded by powerful enraged spirits that will attack you on sight. A statue at the entrance will bless you with temporary stealth to get past them. Return these relics to me to pass the druidic trial of these lands.

Where would you like to fly to?

If we are to make these new lands ours then we must have places to rest our battle weary bodies. Lay your axe by the fire and share the stories of your mighty battles.

Your skill exceeds mine, though I've heard that Old Man Heming in Booty Bay has copies of "The Bass and You". That is sure to help you increase your skill.

Wulan in Shadowprey Village can sell you the "Expert Cookbook". You will need that if you are to better yourself.

It's been so long since I was a novice myself that I don't think I'd be the best teacher for you. Try talking to Tarn or Mak, right over there. One of them should be able to answer your questions.

As the wind on the plains, you are always welcome here.

I am pleased with your progress so far. Surely the Earth Mother has inspired your hands.

As the wind on the plains, you are always welcome here.

I cannot help you with further training: your skill at working with leather rivals my own. You should speak with Una, over there. I will vouch for your skill if need be.

Now that you have received my blessing, return to Dendrite. He will instruct you further. Unfortunately I have little left to teach you for the moment. I do hope you come and visit me in Zephras again someday. I sense promise in you, young shen'dorei. May the shadows forever hide you, your foes easily fall prey to your claws, and the winds guide your steps.

Yes, druid? Are you reporting in?

Hail brother... I'd like a moment of your time, if I may. We tauren have endured much in our trials and tribulations in establishing our homeland. We now find ourselves in a dire shortage of cloth. If you have the materials to spare, I ask that you please donate them. You certainly would earn the gratitude of tauren everywhere in helping us out!

Do you seek training as a leatherworker?

Which class trainer are you looking for?

Take my update to Kadrak. Swiftly, adventurer.

Gales greetings, friend. Is there something I can help you with?

To complete the Trial of the Lake, you must use the Shrine Bauble within the boundaries of this shrine. Until you do so, your trial remains unfinished and it is at risk of failure.

Your return to Thunder Bluff is not without heralding, though I will need proof of your lessons learned in Moonglade before I will teach you your aquatic form. Do you have the Pendant of the Sea Lion?

Very impressive, adventurer. Your ancestors would be pleased with your progress! You're ready to learn your aquatic form, and it is my pleasure to teach it to you. Also, in recognition of your achievement during the two trials, I give you this item. I hope you'll find it to be a welcome addition to your gear as a protector of nature and a keeper of the balance.

Ah, hello there. I spend a great deal of time studying the water - all the elements really - so much so that sometimes I don't even notice people around me. Is there something I can help you with?

The Excavation of Bael Modan The original survey crew sent by the Explorers' League was indeed correct in their findings. The ground here holds artifacts of unlimited value to our people. No doubt we will find many answers in our quest for knowledge beneath the sand and rock of Bael Modan. The geology of the region dictates we use extreme measures however. Many of the sand deposits have solidified under the harsh conditions and varying climate.

The solution is quite simple however. Using wood pulp as an absorbent, we can combine traces of nitroglycerin with sodium nitrate to develop a strong blasting charge, capable of breaking through even the most dense masses. The work will be noisy and disruptive but our search is of far greater importance than the comfort of the local inhabitants. In fact, we've already had to drive a band of bull-men out of the area who were proving to be a nuisance.

The fact that we are dealing with various rogue elements out here leads me to believe we will need support from the King's Army. Not only will the excavation require military support, it would seem to my novice eye that the location of Bael Modan might be of strategic value to the Alliance considering the volatility of world politics in their current state. Alas, I have digressed. There is much work to be done beneath the rock. I have spent too much time writing and not enough digging...

Do you hear the call of the hunt, druid? You must listen closely, but the call comes from deep within you. It comes from deep within all of us.

Even within cold, stone walls such as the ones that shelter this town, one may find tranquility and peace. In fact, you may find them everywhere you are... simply look inside yourself for such balance.

Greetings young druid, I'm glad to see you ready and eager to learn about the curing of poisons. While most druids in the past were put through pre-planned trials, your work will involve no such thing. There has been a rash of animal poisonings at the Crossroads in the Barrens, and they're unable to bring it under control. Someone there has requested Moonglade for aid, so we are sending you there to aid them. This is no exercise - the work you'll do is quite real. Bear this in mind.

Though the Crossroads seems to be the center of activity in The Barrens, I prefer the quietude of Camp Taurajo. Where shall I send you?

You will need to find Nat Pagle in Dustwallow Marsh to get any better than you are currently.

Go to Kodohide Leatherworkers in The Drag. Ask for Kamari.
