Objectives

Speak with Ulfar in Ulfar's Den.

• Speak with Ulfar ^{[45.2, 45.8]}
• Ulfar defended ^{[46.1, 45.3]}

Description

I cannot change your mind, can I? Very well, I may know where you can find your answers.

High in the mountains, there is a hidden alcove of impossibly verdant growth. It is there that the druids of Kul Tiras train in the old ways of the Drust - from before the time of Gorak Tul.

Their leader is a great bear named Ulfar. I know little about him, but few are more qualified to parse the magic of the Drust.

You will find a path to his den along Highroad Pass. Good luck, Inquisitor.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 23 40
• 17,850 XP

Progress

Yes?

Completion

Forgive my hesitation, mainlander. It would appear the minions of Thros are no longer confined to their own realm.

I will help you cross the threshold into the Blighted Lands.

Notes

On approach:

Ulfar says: A visitor to my den? How curious.

•  I'm looking for a way into the Blighted Lands.

Ulfar says: You wish to enter Thros? I am afraid I cannot help you, mainlander.

Ulfar says: Some pathways are best left closed, lest those on the other side set foot upon them.

Shade of Gorak Tul yells: Oh, we are well past peeking, old bear.

Ulfar says: Gorak Tul! It cannot be!

Shocked, Ulfar runs out to the entrance of his den, where the Shade of Gorak Tul waits in the middle of the clearing.

Ulfar yells: Thornspeakers, to arms!

Two shifted Thornspeaker Students leap in front of Ulfar.

Shade of Gorak Tul says: You know you cannot defeat me, Ulfar. But if it is a fight you seek, then you shall have it!

Shade of Gorak Tul yells: Thros awakens!

Defeat four Blighted Haunters.

Shade of Gorak Tul yells: You would share our gifts with these wretches, Ulfar? You deserve to burn with them!

Ulfar yells: Who are you to judge who's worthy? Your twisted ways have disgraced our kind, Tul!

Defeat roughly a dozen haunters and Blighted Malices.

Shade of Gorak Tul yells: This is far from over, old bear.

Gorak Tul vanishes as he speaks, and Ulfar heads back inside.

Ulfar says: It would appear I was mistaken. Thros has come to us.

Ulfar says: This... changes things.
