[edit] Steps

1. Interact with The Battle at Burning Roots ( -299, 18, -54 ) /waypoint -299, 18, -54  Memorial in the Greater Faydark.

5. Interact with a another strongbox (looks like an attackable creature strongbox) ( 284, 61, -143 ) /waypoint 284, 61, -143 in a tent on Orc Hill.
6. Examine the scroll ( 254, 67, -182 ) /waypoint 254, 67, -182  in a tent on Orc Hill. note: Treant Lore and Legend is in a chest in the next tent over; pick it up while you're there.

9. Find and defeat the Crushbone spies by looking for the reddish sparkles and the mouseover infobox, orc scribbling, that mark their spy posts (see the discussion page of this article for more info). In general they can be triggered as follow:
   • on a raised root just North by Northeast of Old Kelethin Acorn Lift at ( -174, 18, -15 ) /waypoint -174, 18, -15 , not far from the Sapling Spur Outpost.
   • on a branch alongside the platform at ( 155, 111, 80 ) /waypoint 155, 111, 80 . Use Old Kelethin Acorn Liftto get there.
   • by the passageway to Butcherblock Mountains at ( 755, 14, -69 ) /waypoint 755, 14, -69 . He spawns on top of the root above your head, so look up if you can't find him. You may receive the message "The orc spy has not reached his post yet", which means you may need to wait a few minutes.
