Ruuna the Blind

Quest Giver: Private Arun — Westfall Brigade Encampment, Grizzly Hills [59.2, 26.2]

Objective: Speak to Ruuna the Blind at Ruuna’s Camp near Vordrassil Pass.

Walkthrough

• After completing A Name from the Past, Private Arun at the encampment overhears your conversation with Stoutmantle about the supposedly dead Arugal. He tells you that “just because someone’s dead doesn’t mean they’re out of the picture” in Northrend, and points you to a blind seer southwest of the encampment.
• Ride southwest to Ruuna’s Camp at [44, 48] near Vordrassil Pass. Speak to Ruuna the Blind to complete the quest.

Efficiency Tips

• Ruuna immediately offers Ruuna’s Request, which has you collecting Gossamer Dust from moths northeast of her camp. Accept it before heading out.
• This is the gateway to the Sasha/Arugal arc. From here the chain moves through Ruuna’s vision quest (Out of Body Experience), into Sasha’s hunt for the Wolfcult, and eventually to the final assault on Arugal at Bloodmoon Isle.

Lore Context

Private Arun’s dialogue is a neat bit of Northrend worldbuilding. In a continent overrun by the Scourge, death doesn’t carry the same finality it does elsewhere. Stoutmantle dismisses the idea of Arugal being alive because he saw his grave, but Arun understands that graves mean less in a land where the dead walk.

Ruuna greets you with: “You seek knowledge beyond your reach, so you’ve come to me. I must warn you, stranger, the answers I provide might not be to your liking.” This sets the tone for what’s coming: her vision quest will show you Arugal’s resurrection by the San’layn princes, confirming the threat that Stoutmantle refused to believe.
