How it is completed

stored id 2

This realm keeps one row per patch for some quests, and this is the patch 0 row — the newest it carries. This realm's own quest table holds 4,727 rows for 4,433 quests, counted from this realm — the difference is the patch rows.

Who starts it

One start, from this realm's own creature table.

This quest row records no previous and no next quest, so it stands alone in the realm's data. A chain can also be carried by other rows pointing at this one.

Items this row names

This quest row asks for no items and hands out none. That is what the row says; the item columns are all zero.

The gossip a player reads first

The Thistlefur furbolgs are threatening our expansion! Thistlefur Village to our east blocks the way between us here and the Splintertree Post. It's a path that would circumvent the village of Astranaar; without it, we give the Alliance an extra expansion path.$B$B$N, we must not allow... an expansion path gap!$B$BProceed to Thistlefur Village and thin out the furbolgs. You will be given compensation for this task, but more importantly you will be doing your duty for the Horde!

Objectives

Take down 12 Thistlefur Avengers and 12 Thistlefur Shaman; most are located east of Zoram Strand in Thistlefur Village. Once completed, return to Karang Amakkar at Zoram'gar Outpost, Ashenvale.

When the items are handed over

Have you taken the fight to the Thistlefur? With a clear path between our bases, our chances of claiming the whole of Ashenvale increase dramatically.

What the quest-giver says at the end

Well done $c, well done! I will continue to send forces to thin out the furbolg, but I can at least count on a different path that will be free of Alliance entanglements. The Horde conquest of Ashenvale is now in full swing!$B$BYou've earned your pay this day, hero. I salute you!

This is the text the realm stores, written as stored. A vanilla quest writes a line break as “$B” and refers to its item counts as “%d”; the rules that turn those into a sentence belong to the game client, so the page keeps the codes rather than guessing at the prose.

Every row above is this realm's own quest row, read from its quest_template table. A value the realm did not record is left out or written as none rather than filled in with a plausible number. The figures labelled “stored id” — how the quest is completed, its type, and a reward spell — are keys into game data this realm was never sent, so they are printed as stored and carry no invented meaning. The experience figure is the base value the row holds: the amount a player is actually given depends on the character's level, and that rule belongs to the game client.
