I'm not sure yet whether this is 100% Ranger related but I'm going to drop it here for now, admins feel free to scoot this wherever it's appropriate.
So, the Serpent's Spine brings us new quests and things to pursue. Now that I'm back from another AFK, finished with progression and hankering for something weird to do, I'll share what I know SO FAR with regard to old blind Mooshie's questline.

An Urgent Matter
Hail, Montolio Debrouchee.
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Salutations young Pathfinder. I am Montolio Debrouchee, but my friends just call me Mooshie. Please excuse the rudeness of an old man but, I have an urgent matter to attend to.'
Urgent Matter.
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'As I was coming back from the Direwind Cliffs, I heard whimpering coming from near the river. Curious I went to investigate and found a sickly bear cub. I'm not sure how he got way out there, the bears don't normally travel that far from the Mesa. I need to take a healing potion to the cub, problem is I'm out of the ingredients to make it. Actually, you're timing couldn't be better. Will you help a blind old man by gathering the required ingredients?'
Help.
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Thank you Nora. You're going to need to forage up some cursed water from a lake of dubious feelings, a pinch of farie dust from the forest of a derranged mare, and finally some timber blasted by arcane magic with which to stir it all together. Bring these ingredients to me and I can create the potion.'
By my reckoning,
lake of dubious feelings = Lake of Ill Omen. FORAGE Blighted Water. I was by the Veksar Zoneline when it hit.
forest of a deranged mare = Lesser Faydark. FORAGE Farie Powder
timber blasted by arcane magic = Toxxulia Forest. FORAGE Spellbound Branch. I'm either dense or unlucky but this took a while to get.
Turn all three items in to Montolio!
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Yes, these will do. I will prepare the potion.'
Montolio Debrouchee mixes the ingredients together in a small wooden bowl and pours the mixture into a small vial.
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Quickly now, go administer this to the poor creature.'
Receive Potion of Antidote.
a sickly bear cub can be found at
/say #zone 405 -560 -1055 4
Turn the potion in to the bear and it will recover and wander off toward the Sunderock Springs zoneline. Just to be cautious and to temper Tunare's fury I made sure everything on the way there was dead. Even the river.
Return to Montolio!
You say, 'Hail, Montolio Debrouchee.'
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Thank the gods you were able to make it to him with the healing potion in time, bur our work is not yet completed. We should investigate as to what the cause of this corruption is. Will you aid this old man yet again?'
You say, 'Aid'
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'I knew you had a kind heart the moment you stepped into my grove. Please go explore the Direwind Cliffs to glean any useful clues as to the cause of the blight and report back to me with your findings.'
You have been assigned the task 'A Dire Situation'.
In Direwind Cliffs, head to the top of the mesa with the waterfall. At the eastern edge of the pool, you'll get your first emote.
'You test the waters source, its taste is nothing out of the ordinary. This can't be the source of the blight poisoning the animals. However you detect the order is wafting over the cliffs from the west.
Head west from the mesa pool toward a Direwind camp. Draw near, kill or evade as you see fit and you'll get another note.
'The pungent odor is stronger here, but this is not it's source.'
Travel somewhat northeast to the next Direwind camp and enter the circle of stones.
'The pungent odor is very strong here, but this is not it's source.'
Track the Darkroot myconids to their home, a cave back to the west.
'The pungent odor is emanating from within the cave. You should report this information back to Mooshie.'
By the way, the 5 mercs that ambush you in the mouth of the cave are pretty mean dudes. Think like a ranger and not a raging bull when you fight them and you'll win. Once 5/5 are dead, go see Mooshie.
You say, 'Hail, Montolio Debrouchee.'
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'Assaulted by mercenaries!? We're onto something here if someone or something is willing to hire Brigands to keep people away. Hmm, I'm sorry but you'll need to go back and investigate that cave.'
You say, 'Investigate'
Montolio Debrouchee says, 'the pungent odor must be eminating from within the Darkroot caves. Those mushroom men are upto something, I can feel it in my bones. Go interrogate a few of them and see what you can learn.'
You have been assigned the task 'Are they really fun guys?'
