Hail, young $r. I am Elissa Starbreeze, and it is my charge to protect Auberdine from harm.$b$bTo this end, I sent Balthule Shadowstrike to observe the strange happenings around the Tower of Althalaxx to the northeast.$b$bIt is past time that he should have returned. I worry that he has encountered some unforeseen danger in the forest. I would be most appreciative if you would find him and see that he is doing well.
Find Balthule Shadowstrike near the Tower of Althalaxx in Darkshore.
