Quest Text
The process of mass conjuring, as the mogu are doing here, is not without byproduct. Some spirits arrive too distraught or unruly to be harnessed, so they are confined and left to wander until their desperation leaves them more malleable. I suspect the mogu have such a holding area somewhere nearby, likely guarded by spiritclaws. Please, take my staff again and use it to collect these wayward spirits. You needn't fight them - present the staff and they should be drawn in.
Plan the run before you travel
The Jade Forest belongs to the Mists of Pandaria archive. Start with its campaign track if this record is unavailable or the next step is missing.
Open the Wowhead page for coordinates, NPC spawn comments, cave entrances, and player-submitted route notes. WoW-God links out instead of copying community comments.
No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.
Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, then use the exact-title references in the archive for NPC or object coordinates. Add a correction below if the live game differs from this record.
