Make sure you do this quest with the sound/music on...there's some nice music that plays when you're in the tree caverns.

The Failed World Tree

Hierophant Thayreen at Amberpine Lodge wants you to go to Vordrassil's Limb, Vordrassil's Heart or Vordrassil's Tears and obtain 6 Slime Samples from the Entropic Oozes.

	Slime Sample (6)

Description

My ancestors once planted a tree in the middle of the Grizzly Hills.

It was called Vordrassil and it was to become a world tree.

For reasons long forgotten, after the tree was fully grown, they decided it needed to be destroyed. Its giant trunk splintered at three locations in the area to the north.

Where the tree touched the ground, foul ooze began to crawl the earth. Bring me slime samples so I can begin my work and the earth can be healed.
