This article will guide the player on how to complete the secret quest “The Toy Thief” in WOW: The War Within.
Starting Location
Speak with Alyx at the main tent of the Caverns of Time to initiate the quest – The Toy Thief. She is wearing a white dress and is the Volunteer Assistant Guest Relations Manager.
After speaking with Aynx, follow the in-game quest marker and head south to find an NPC named Maru near a tent. Speak with him to receive the “The Toy Thief” quest. Choose the dialogue “I think the culprit is a dog”.
In the next first step, the quest will split between Horde and Alliance players.
For Alliance Players
Head to Boralus, located in the Battle for Azeroth expansion. In Boralus go to a location marked on the map below. Speak with the NPC named Urban Planner Volrath near a tree. Tell him we’re looking for a dog and collect the dog’s sketch from him.
For Horde Players
For the Horde player, travel to Zandalar. In Zandalar go to Zundazar. Then in Zundazar, go to Daza’alor.
In Daza’alor, head to the top-right section of the map. Near the stairs, you’ll find a note on the ground. Pick it up to obtain the sketch.
From here, follow the same steps for both Alliance and Horde factions.
Head over to the Dragon Isles. In the Dragon Isles, head to the Dhn’ahran Plains. In Dhn’ahran Plains, go to Maruukai.
In Maruukai, go to the innkeeper NPC, Heartkeeper Beluran, in the tent. The location is marked below. Speak with NPC Heartkeeper Beluran and select the dialogue “We are looking for a mischievous Bakar pup.”
Next, head northwest along the road and stop at the first tent by the roadside. Speak with the NPC and select the dialogue “Have you seen a Bakar stealing toys in the area?”
Then fly up the mountain, just north of it. Players will find an Ohn’ahra’s bird nest at the very top of Snow Mountain.
Just near the nest, you will find a broken chew toy sword.
In the Dhn’ahran Plains, go southwest to the Teerakai area. Go to the big hill in the northern part of the area. Interact with the crate by placing a toy inside.
Now, in the same area, head northwest to find a cave just before the water area.
Go inside this cave to find a huge pile of toys. Interact with the item on the floor.
Finally, head back to the 20th Anniversary event location and speak with NPC Maru to end the quest.
