Before you can look around, a voice calls out. "Ho Warrior! Well met!" A druid steps out from under the tree cover and approaches you. "Well met, Warrior. I am Bartak, druid of this forest. I wonder if you'd be willing aid me in a matter of the health of the area?" he says.

You introduce yourself and say "What's happening in the forest? It's been rather peaceful so far." Bartak shrugs. "The forest spirits are agitated. Something deeper in the forest appears to be poisoning the area. It's only just reaching this area. Will you help me trek into the forest to find this contagion?" "Excellent. I need you to perform an unpleasant task. I need the Karathian Glades Dryad cleansed. Please cut them down so the rest cannot be corrupted, then meet me in the Krathian Forest (Copse)." With that, Bartak melts away into the forest.

You've caught up with Bartak at the Copse. "Well met Warrior. Did you purge the glades dryads?" Bartak muses. "Sad work but it needs to be done for the overall health of the forest." He looks away, seemingly lost in thought, before turning back to you. "[USERNAME], the Fae of the Copse in this area are also heavily afflicted, they need to be cut down. I shall move ahead to the River.That seems the most likely source of the contagion. It feeds the entire forest. I shall meet you there." Once again, instructions given Bartak moves on.

A vast horde has moved into the area and their filth and joy of drowning their victims has tainted the water! We need to destroy them! With them removed, I can cleanse the water. Please, kill them and return once you've done so." You draw your weapon. Time to hunt trolls!

Covered in gore and troll vileness, you make your way back to Bartak. He sees you coming and tries to hide a smirk."I take it your hunt was successful?" "Gods, they're disgusting creatures!" You exclaim. Bartak chuckles. "Aye, that they are. Hold still." He charts and splashes some water at you and the filth evaporates off of you. The change is smell is instantly noticeable. "A minor version of the cleansing I shall have to undertake." he says. "Here, please take this for your efforts along with my gratitude."You receive 'Heartwood Knot' & 362,523,090 XP.
