Collect two well samples in Westfall for Alba Fairmoon and claim 460 XP plus Stormwind reputation.

Testing the Wells is a low-level Alliance quest in Westfall added to World of Warcraft: Forever in patch 1.60.1. Alba Fairmoon at Sentinel Hill wants proof that Westfall’s groundwater has been poisoned, and she hands you a Well Water Sample Kit to gather evidence from two nearby farms.

Quick answer: Pick up the quest from Alba Fairmoon at Sentinel Hill. Use the Well Water Sample Kit at the wells on The Molsen Farm and The Jansen Stead, then bring the quest back to Alba.


Testing the Wells quest requirements

This is a short fetch quest that starts and ends with the same NPC. It sits at the front of the Toxic Soil storyline, so finishing it opens the next steps in the Westfall chain.

The kit is a quest item that you can use repeatedly, so a single kit covers both wells. Its tooltip reads “Take a water sample from a well at a Westfall farm.”


How to complete Testing the Wells

Rewards and how to confirm it worked

You know each sample is secured when the quest tracker on the right of your screen ticks over to 1/1 for that well. Once both read 1/1, a yellow question mark appears over Alba Fairmoon, and selecting Complete Quest grants the rewards below.

  • 460 experience
  • 2 Silver 50 Copper
  • +50 reputation with Stormwind

You can double-check completion in-game at any time by running /run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(92742)), which returns true once the quest is done. Finishing it also unlocks Murloc Gills, the next step in the Toxic Soil questline that leads toward the Deadmines.
