This group mission is the third in a series of five. It begins with Researcher Higgins (click for map image), a gnome found in Barren Coast at /location 230, -90 (sitting inside a wagon). He will not talk to you at dubious faction. He will give the task at indifferent+.
Pre-requisites for Requesting: - Completion of "The Wild Island" - Completion of "Long Abandoned" Upon completion of the previous task, you saw: Researcher Higgins looks a bit surprised by your speedy return, though he gathers his composure quickly and inquires as to your discoveries in Monkey Rock, excitedly grabbing the artifacts from your hands almost as soon as you pull them from your packs. After seeing the artifacts, he explains the horrifying discoveries he made with the remains and asks you to [investigate] Monkey Rock once more, to collect some blood from each of the diseased animals. You say, 'We will investigate' You have been assigned the task 'A Volatile Disease'. Researcher Higgins has examined the creature remains that you brought and is horrifed to discover that they all carry some strange disease. He is worried that whatever it is could be dangerous to humans and fears that not only could that explain why the island is abandoned, but that you may be infected. He needs more samples of the monkey blood to examine. Purchase tickets to Monkey Rock and catch the boat 0/1 (Barren Coast) Dockmaster Weatherby says 'You look like you've been at sea on a dangerous mission for a while? Perhaps you plan to head back out, in which case you're going to need to purchase another ticket before boarding the Isabeau.' Buy a "Seafarer's Ticket: Monkey Rock" from any of the Dockmasters along the coastline and keep it in your inventory. When the ship docks, step onto it and wait for it to sail out to the Buried Sea. Upon zoning, you'll find yourself in an instanced version of the island. (Next to you is a rowboat that serves as your zone-out.)

You are quickly picked up by one of the many merchant ships sailing the waters of the Buried Sea and delivered safely to the dock on Jardel's Hook... Head back to Researcher Higgins in Barren Coast, and hail him: Researcher Higgins is quite pleased with the samples of blood that you have brought him, as they will allow him to further his research, but at the current time he seems more interested in the journals you brought him, saying that make mention of various plants. He would like you to [investigate] these plants and bring back several samples for him to study.
