The Great Tree Provides Quest: Empty Vial, Water and Fronds
The Great Tree Provides is an Alliance quest in World of Warcraft: Forever (WoW Forever): Byancie in Dolanaar, Teldrassil, wants 6 Dewy Lasher Fronds, an Empty Vial and a Refreshing Spring Water, and pays 840 experience. Wowhead lists it as level 10, requiring level 4, for Night Elf and High Order Skyborne characters, as of November 9, 2026.
Quick answer: Buy or find the Empty Vial and Refreshing Spring Water in Dolanaar (Byancie's text says both can be bought in town), then farm 6 Dewy Lasher Fronds near Lake Al'Ameth south of Dolanaar. Players say the frond drop rate is poor.
Byancie needs ingredients to hold an affliction at bay until Eralya returns for further treatment, per the quest text. The forest around Dolanaar is meant to supply the rest.

Where do you get the Empty Vial?
Byancie's quest text says an empty vial and spring water "can be bought here in town, or traded for". A player comment (September 26) says the Empty Vial is on the second level of the tree above the quest giver, and the Refreshing Spring Water comes from the innkeeper across the road. Treat those as player reports and check the vendor lists in Dolanaar.
Where do you find Dewy Lasher Fronds?
The quest text points to Lake Al'Ameth directly south of Dolanaar, or Wellspring Lake and its river to the northwest. A player says to kill Lasher Sproutlings south of Dolanaar. Another recommends skipping the ones by Wellspring Lake and going for the lower level lashers in the south. The fronds are a drop, so you may kill many for six. See the Teldrassil guide.
Is the frond drop rate really bad?
Two commenters say the drop rate is "awful" or "super duper awful"; both comments are dated three days before the page was opened. Wowhead states no drop rate, so no number is confirmed. Group or solo, expect to kill several lashers; a friend helps (see leveling in a group).
Is it hard for a Druid?
Commenters say so. One says the lashers are immune to Wrath and that Moonfire is a druid's other real damage at that level, so you may need to kite. Two more call it tedious for the experience. That is player opinion; the Druid guide covers the class. Byancie is also a first aid trainer, per the Warcraft Wiki; see the cooking, fishing and first aid guide.

Can the Lore Forever add-on and Willo help with The Great Tree Provides?
The free Lore Forever add-on has a Lore button on the quest dialog and quest log that opens a quest's story. It is fan-made, not affiliated with Blizzard, has no internet access, and its narration uses generated voices. Ask Willo out loud ("where do I find lasher fronds") while you play. Willo is free to start (50 answers a day) and is a separate companion app for Windows 10 or 11 and Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 12 or later), per her page; her FAQ and the Lore Forever FAQ say Windows and Mac, though CurseForge still calls her a Windows app. She can be wrong and is not official, so in-game quest text and Blizzard's pages are the source of truth.
