Exact quest requirements
Prerequisite: None
- 12 × Glitchfin Snapper slain — kill objective
Quest text: The glitchfin kept to their shallows for twenty years — half fish, half error, content to flicker in the murk. Now they swarm the east bank like flies on a carcass, and my wardens say they are dragging things up from the buffer bed. Whatever has them stirred, I want it stopped. Cull 12 of the snappers.
