The Root of the Problem

Kill the Coldbite Matriarch.

• slain

Kypari Zar is dying.

A creature of terrible darkness corrupts it from deep beneath its roots.

The tree cannot be saved, but at least we can lessen its pain.

Look. The vile creature has carved a path to its own lair. We need only follow it down the hill, just behind this tower.

You will also receive:

The swarm knows not of their terrible folly! These precious trees must be protected at all costs!

Thank you, Wakener. Kypari Zar can now dream in peace.

However, the beast was merely a vessel for the corruption.

No... the true corruption lies much deeper.
