'''Horrors in the Highland''' is the Forever quest identified by '''95646'''.<ref name="record">[https://www.wowhead.com/forever/quest=95646/horrors-in-the-highland Wowhead Forever quest record], reviewed 8 October 2026.</ref>

== Objective ==
Defeat a '''Highland Horror inside [[Excavation Site: Wetlands]]''' and deliver '''1 Horrible Rootcore''' to '''Rethiel the Greenwarden''' in [[Wetlands]].<ref name="record" /> The objective explicitly names the instance: an outdoor creature with the same name is not sufficient evidence of quest credit.

== Preparation ==
Icy Veins says Rethiel's earlier quests, beginning with '''Tramping Paws''', must be completed first.<ref name="guide">[https://www.icy-veins.com/wow-forever/excavation-site-wetlands-quests Quest guide], checked 2026-10-08.</ref> Check whether the quest is available before entering; the wiki has not independently tested the prerequisite flags.

== Rewards ==
Choose '''Ironwood Destroyer''', '''Curl of Life''' or '''Hornbeam Heft'''.<ref name="record" /> No drop chance for the objective item is established by the inspected record.

== Evidence and limits ==
Objectives and reward placement were checked against the individual Forever record. Guide reports and player comments are identified separately. Minimum acceptance levels, shareability, experience and money are not inferred from a dungeon level band or another WoW edition. See [[Excavation Site: Wetlands#Quest preparation|dungeon quest preparation]] for the dated guide overview. No wiki playthrough is claimed.
