The Missing Diplomat

Give the Sealed Note to Watcher Backus in Duskwood.

Jorgen, you ol' sonuva.... So, that's how it's going to be, huh?

All right, I can deal with that. I hope he finds the Twisting Nether that much sooner!

Here's what's gonna happen, adventurer. I'll start using my contacts here, but you're doing most of the footwork so I save some coin.

Head to Darkshire in Duskwood and find Watcher Backus--he usually patrols the north road right outside of town. Just tell him you're looking into any Defias activity for me and he'll help you out with any information he can.

Oh, Trias sent you, huh? That's a little different.

Feel free to fight whatever monstrosities come at you from the darkness. I'm sure you'll be able to handle it pretty easily if you're the type to be hanging around with the likes of him.

So, what does my friend need of me on such a gloomy day as this?

Quest data is exported from the world database of the Elwynn realm at WoW patch 1.12. Texts are shown as the world data stores them, with the game placeholders resolved to their neutral form. Spell names are resolved; their effect descriptions are not, because the world data writes them with client placeholders. Where a questgiver stands is on their NPC page, read from the server’s terrain grid. The export also carries this quest in DE, ES, FR, RU; this build publishes English only.
