Quest text

What the quest giver says.

‹name›, ‹class› and ‹race› stand for your character’s.

The elements are in turmoil, ‹class›. The cataclysm stirred up the long-dormant water spirits of Helm's Bed Lake, just to the south. They're angry, confused, and unwilling to hear my pleas. I have tried everything I know to calm them, to persuade them to stop lashing out and attacking the sergeant's mountaineers. It pains me to say this, but no other options remain -- we must kill the elementals.
