Description

So then, Hollee... oh that's right, you are not Hollee. Where's Hollee?

Bah, that's beside the point. We must find that stone brush... I mean the mysterious fossil! We must find that fossil. The Explorers' League in Darnassus will want some indication as to what I've been doing.

Let me know when you are ready and we will hunt down that brush.... I mean fossil! We shall find something in writing to satisfy the League.

So are you ready yet?

When you return

Is the prospector alive?

On completion

Thank the stars Prospector Remtravel is safe! I told you he was absent minded. I can't believe he insisted on staying there with all of those horrible creatures lurking about.
