The Reason for the Season

Speak with Historian Karnik at the Explorer's League in Ironforge about the Feast of Winter Veil.

Description

Gifts, treats, presents... bah, I say!

Those goblins pollute the true meaning of this season - the Feast of Winter Veil. This is a time of renewal; the land slumbers under a blanket of snow brought forth by Greatfather Winter, who is NOT the bumbling fool over there in the red suit!

If you're interested in learning what the Feast is all about for yourself, ask Historian Karnik at the Explorer's League. I'm sure he'll be surprised that someone cares about history rather than getting presents.

Completion

The Feast of Winter Veil, you say? Alas, in times past it held a more substantial meaning to us dwarves. Nowadays, it seems as though others have turned the legend of Greatfather Winter into something that helps to sell candies and presents.

It's no surprise that Goli is bitter about that sort of change. He and other dwarves like him cling to our past like a banner of war. While I think a little celebration is always good, it is important to remember the origins of the Feast.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 65 experience (3 90 at max. level)

The quest gives a varying amount of EXP depending your level. My level 18 rogue got 140 exp, yet my level 69 druid got over 1000. My level 61 warlock got around 900. My level 31 warrior got 250 exp.

Doesn't count towards the Loremaster achievement.

But apparently towards 3000 quests.

Nice quest line to earn reputation with Dwarves (500) and other frendly fractions (150, in patch 2.3.3)

Pick up this quest even if its an alt and you don't have time to finish it yet. The NPC's are there all year long, so you can continue it after the event.
