In Foreign Hearts

The very forest itself is twisted and corrupted. Everywhere we look, we see the festering and lingering presence of this evil. The wildlife has been cursed to live such woeful existences, constantly teetering on the brink of madness and rage, all the while enthralled by the great evil that poisons their hearts.

I have been studying the wildlife here for some time now, but I need more samples to understand this phenomenon better. Recently, I discovered a natural occurrence taking place in Tel'Abim. The enragement of the wildlife there has traveled to my ears, and I need to know more about it to potentially link it to what's happening here.

For this reason, I require five hearts of the enraged basilisk. Bring them to me, and I will make good use of the samples you provide. Let us make progress in our understanding of this curse.

Has your journey made progress yet?

The samples are peculiar as they do not exhibit any signs of being twisted by foreign interference or the hands of foul magic. Instead, they appear to be deformed due to primalistic rage.

There may be a link here that I am not seeing, but I doubt that these samples are connected to what is happening here in Felwood.

Regardless, I appreciate your efforts in ruling out such a possibility.
