Washed Ashore

Recover Sea Creature Bones from the beached sea creature just south of Auberdine, and then return with it to Gwennyth Bly'Leggonde in Auberdine.
Sea Creature Bones

Description

Majestic sea creatures are known to launch themselves at the Darkshore coastline, beached there until they die. Lately, these beasts have been washing ashore in ever-increasing numbers. I've been sent here by the Temple of the Moon to investigate, but the presence of murlocs along the water has made my research difficult.

There is a giant creature washed ashore just south of Auberdine that is ringed by the foul Greymist murlocs. Could you go there and retrieve bones from the creature for our study?

Reward

Also, you get: 4

Progress

It is only recently that these creatures started landing on the coast of Darkshore in such alarming numbers. I can't help but think that this is an ill omen of some sort. Recovering a sample of that creature's bones to the south would help us in Darnassus assess this situation!

Completion

I hope the murloc did not give you much trouble in collecting this for us! I will be sure to get this on the next hippogryph to Darnassus. The Temple of the Moon has given me some funds to hand out for assistance; please have some with our thanks.

Your success here emboldens me to offer you a chance to aid the Temple of the Moon further, if you are interested...

Loc 36, 50 on the shore. It's a big dead creature with murlocs guarding it.

Coords are correct. I only had to kill two Murlocks, very easy quest for level 13 hunter.

Fun fact: the stranded sea creature's corpse shows up on the minimap with https://vanillawowdb.com/?spell=2383 Find Herbs.

If you are a warrior doing the warrior's quest The Shade of Elura, it is at the same location and slightly to the left of Elura, with the new ""shiny"" mechanics its hard to miss the turtle's skeleton.

Note to those using Carbonite (version is current as of 21 July 2010) that the coordinates it gives are INCORRECT. The carbonite coords put you on an empty beach near a beached turtle with murlocs around it. I was fooled into thinking this was the animal. It is not. The coords 36,50, as the other commenter has pointed out, is correct. For reference it's just a little walk north of the turtle. Good luck!
