To start this four-quest series you need to talk to Mathrengyl Bearwalker in the Cenarion Enclave in north-western Darnassus, on the second floor of the tower in Fandral Staghelm's tree (35,8) and get the quest 'A Lesson to Learn.'

To complete the quest you must speak with Dendrite Starblaze in the village of Nighthaven, Moonglade. You can teleport there using the Teleport Moonglade spell that is permanently in your spell book. (When you did the bear form quest you went to the same place.)

The Teleport Moonglade spell will place you right in front of the building in which you will find Dendrite Starblaze. Go inside and up to the second floor. (56,30)

**WARNING FOR PvP SERVERS** This quest is for all druids- Horde and Alliance- and for those of you who are on PvP servers Moonglade is contested territory, so watch out for those high level players who love to gank low level druids on this quest.

Dendrite Starblaze will give you the next quest, Trial of the Lake.

The Trial of the Lake is a timed quest, so be certain you are ready to start it (read this first) and have time to complete it before you accept it.

The quest objective is to find a Shrine Bauble in Lake Elune'ara and take it to the Shrine of Remulos in northwestern Moonglade. Once there, you use/activate the Shrine Bauble. Afterwards you have to speak with Tajarri, one of Moonglade's wardens, in order to complete the quest, and pick up the next quest.

Lake Elune'ara is located just south of the village of Nighthaven. If you use map coordinates, just swim with your head above water to (51,51) in the lake, and then dive down to the bottom of the lake. There you will find a source of air bubbles that will refill your breath meter so that you won't drown.

If you do not have map coordinates, try swimming to the middle of the lake to the spot on your map where the "e'a" appears in the name "Elune'ara" and dive down from there. You should be able to locate the source of the air bubbles to refill your breath meter.



From this point look around to locate the vase containing the Shrine Bauble. The location changes, but it should be close to the source of the air bubbles. Try searching at (55,46) or (55,47) and just east-north-east of the air bubbles.

You have to be close to the bottom of the lake to see the vase with a very faint red glow that contains the Shrine Bauble. Right click the vase to obtain the bauble.

Check your inventory to be certain you have it there before you leave, then swim to the side of the lake closest to the Shrine of Remulos (35,41) and head straight there.

If you do not have a map addon just look at your map; the Shrine of Remulos is there in the north-west. Remember, you are on a timer!

When you arrive at the Shrine of Remulos go all the way in to the big tree, open your inventory and right click the bauble. The ground will shake a bit.

Now go to Tajarri (36,40) right next to the Shrine of Remulos (but outside of it) and talk to her. You finish this quest with Tajarri and then she will give you the next quest: Trial of the Sea Lion.

This part of the Aquatic form quest series has very different locations to visit for Alliance and Horde, so make sure you are looking at the correct walk through.

This walk through is for the Alliance. Use this link for the Horde druid water form quest walk through.

Tajarri will give you this quest to find the Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility and the Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance, join them together into the Pendant of the Sea Lion, and present it to Dendrite Starblaze in the village of Nighthaven, in Moonglade.

This quest really has three parts: 1) finding the Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility; 2) finding the Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance; 3) combining the two parts and returning to Dendrite Starblaze in Moonglade.

So, where are the two half pendants? Tajarri tells you to "speak with the residents of Moonglade to learn clues as to where these items may be located." Talk about vague! It's a good thing you have this guide to help you. :)

***BTW, it would be much easier to complete this quest if you have the assistance of a friend who would like to gain some extra XP, especially if you have just reached level 16 when you start the quest.***

So, where are these half pendants? The short answer is this:

The Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility is in a 'strange lock box' at the bottom of the sea off the coast of Darkshore. (48,11)

The Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance is in a 'strange lock box' on the sea floor off the coast of Westfall. (17,33)

But of course, I'm going to give you more help than that!

If you have the fly point for Auberdine in Darkshore, visit the griffon master in Moonglade and fly to Auberdine.

If you do not have this yet, take the free ride to Darnassus from the griffon master in Moonglade or hearth back. In Darnassus go behind the bank (30,41) and enter the pink pavillion that tranports you to Rut'theran Village in Teldrassil. Take the path to the sea and turn right and go down the pier to take the free boat ride across the Veiled Sea to Auberdine in Darkshore.

Once you are in Auberdine travel north along the coast road until you find the location where the Cliffspring River empties into the ocean. Swim north-west (facing about 11 o'clock) into the ocean from the mouth of the river.



Try to stay on the surface of the water while swimming; you are less likely to attract the attention of the elder darkshore threshers (level 16-18) swimming in the deep water beneath you this way, but no guarantees. You will probably have to kill at least one elder darkshore thresher to get to the pendant.

You should see several large rocks sticking up out of the water. Find the V-shaped rock formation sticking out of the water.

The "strange lockbox" with the pendant is located on the sea bottom (48,11) on the ocean side of the 'V' between the rocks. Right click the box to retrieve the pendant.

To retrieve the Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance you need to get to Westfall. If your hearthstone is set for Sentinel Hill in Westfall you're in luck! If not, see the directions that follow.

Directions to Westfall:
If you hearth to Stormwind, Iron Forge, or Loch Modan see the instructions that follow for those who fly to these locations.
Alternate route from Auberdine: take the boat to to Menethil Harbor (ask the guards on the pier to make sure you get on the correct one.) From Menethil Harbor fly to Westfall.
If you don't have the Westfall fly point yet, fly to any of the following: Stormwind, Iron Forge, or Loch Modan (listed in order of first choice.) From Stormwind you can run to Sentinel Hill in Westfall. From Iron Forge take the tram to Stormwind and then run to Sentinel Hill in Westfall. From Loch Modan you can run to Iron Forge take the tram to Stormwind and then run to Sentinel Hill in Westfall.

If you don't have any of these fly points (what have you been doing?) you will have to take the main road east from Menethil Harbor. (NOTE: For future ease of travel grab the fly points when you pass through each of these locations.)

On the main road east from Menethil Harbor keep to the right whenever the road splits. The road will curve south and you will pass through a series of tunnels and enter Loch Modan. From Loch Modan you head south and then west to Dun Morogh. Go to Iron Forge in Dun Morogh and take the tram to Stormwind, and then run to Sentinel Hill in Westfall.



From Sentinel Hill go west to the coast in the area just north of the Gold Coast Quarry, around (26,35). See the area marked on the picture of the map. Swim directly west into the sea until you reach (17,33) where you should see a bubbly fissure below you with a chest right next to it. The bubbly fissure will give you a full breath. Right click the chest to retrieve the second half of the pendant.



If you do not have map addons/coordinates go just north of the Gold Coast Quarry to an area where you will see a windmill. Then swim west into the sea until you see a big anchor (20,33) lying on the sea floor. Swim straight down the cliff near the anchor and you'll see the bubbly fissure with the chest right next to it.

NOTE: Level 22-23 elite sharks have been reported in the area, though I did not see any when I completed this quest.

Also, you should resist the urge to swim to the interesting wrecked ship further out, as this is in deep enough water that you will receive "fatigue" from the attempt. (When you experience "fatigue" it is a sign that you are venturing somewhere the developers do not want you to be. Fatigue is eventually fatal and can even kill your ghost.)

Now that you have the Half Pendant of Aquatic Agility and the Half Pendant of Aquatic Endurance it is time to join them together to form the Pendant of the Sea Lion.

Use your Teleport to Moonglade spell. When you arrive in Moonglade run over to the Shrine of Remulos again. (Remember, it's at (35,41) just outside of Nighthaven. On your map the Shrine of Remulos is in the north-west.)

Go inside the Shrine of Remulos, and open your inventory. To form the Pendant of the Sea Lion right click either one of the two halves of the pendant in your inventory. You must be inside the shrine when you do this.

Now bring the joined pendant to Dendrite Starblaze (the easiest way is to use your Teleport Moonglade spell again) in Nighthaven village, Moonglade. (56,30)

OK, this is the easy part!

When you bring the Pendant of the Sea Lion to Dendrite Starblaze he will reward you with the Aquarius Belt (Binds on pickup, Leather, 40 Armor, +2 Stamina, +2 Intellect.) You have also earned 1,150 Experience Points!

Dendrite Starblaze will then instruct you to return to your trainer and show him the Pendant of the Sea Lion.

As an Alliance Druid you should return to Mathrengyl Bearwalker in the Cenarion Enclave in north-western Darnassus, on the second floor of the tower in Fandral Staghelm's tree. (35,8) Mathrengyl Bearwalker will give you the training that will enable you to use the Sea Lion form.

Congratulations!
You now have the very useful Druid Aquatic (Sea Lion) form!

For those of you who passed over this quest at a lower level or abandoned it part way through, here is how to do it.

Essentially, if you have not even started the quest before, you can do so by visiting Mathrengyl Bearwalker on the 2nd floor of the druid trainer houses at the Cenarion Enclave in Darnassus (35,8.)

If your level is too high, you will not see a golden ! and the quest will be gray for you (meaning no XP,) but you can still get the quest. There is no level limit.

If you click on the trainer you will see the starting quest listed. If you do not see it, you must have already done it. In that case read on.

If you started this quest quite some time ago and abandoned it part way through you will need to pick it up at the point just before you abandoned it.
Where you go and who you talk to all depends on when you dropped it.

If you previously visited Dendrite Starblaze (56,30) in Moonglade and signed up for the Trial of the Lake, but then dropped the quest before you finished it, you will have to visit Dendrite Starblaze again and obtain the quest a second time.

If you completed the Shrine Bauble in the lake quest (Trial of the Lake,) and then started looking for the pendants (Trial of the Sea Lion,) but dropped the quest, you will have to go see Tajarri (36,40) near the Shrine of Remulos to get the quest again and start it over.

If, by chance, you have the two pendant halves in your inventory (or in a bank vault) then you need to join them together while inside the Shrine of Remulos, and take them to Dendrite Starblaze to get the Aquatic Form quest.

If you are unable to join the halves, you should get the Trial of the Sea Lion quest from Tajarri again and then see if it works.

Just visit these quest givers and click on them even if you do not see a golden exclamation point. You can still obtain the quest from them if you have not completed it yet.
