Cleansing of the Infected

Objectives
Cleanse the forest of 20 Rabid Thistle Bears and return to Tharnariun Treetender in Darkshore.
 * slain (20)

Description
As I had feared, the cure does not work.

It saddens me greatly to order the death of any of nature's beasts, but the sick and tainted thistle bears must be put down.

Return to the forest and destroy 20 rabid thistle bears, &lt;name&gt;. It will most certainly not put a stop to the plague but it will slow down the damage the animals are doing to our forest and its inhabitants for a short time.

Completion
You have done Auberdine a great service, &lt;name&gt;, but your task is not yet complete.

Return to me once you have rested.

...and &lt;name&gt;, prepare your mind and soul for more bloodshed.

Gains
Upon completion of this quest you will gain:
 * 1150 XP (or at level 70)
