Patch 2.1 brought many treats to the adventurers of Azeroth, but one of the sweetest is the Epic Druid Flight Form quest. Unlike its predecessor, Flight Form, this ability isn't handed out to every high level shape shifter with the appropriate riding skill. The quest to fly at epic speed is long and complex. Revered reputation grinding, Heroic instance running, escort quests, exploding foliage and much more await the intrepid druid. Oh, and they have to pay the 5000g riding skill upgrade before they can even start the quest.
When they finish, druids not only get the Swift Flight Form ability, but also a relic that works for any druid spec: Idol of the Raven Goddess - Increases the healing granted by the Tree of Life form aura by 20, adds 9 critical strike rating to the Leader of the Pack aura, and adds 9 spell critical strike rating to the Moonkin form aura.
An excellent walkthrough, Wiki style, can be found here at the Servants of Seagis guild site.
EDIT: Another reward received in the quest chain: Charm of Swift Flight, Trinket, Equip: Increases speed in Flight Form and Swift Flight Form by 10%. Thanks to Felixia from the Uldum Server for the heads up!

After having done it on the test realm and my own server, the quest isn't all that hard (except for the bear form part, which I couldn't solo, and the heroic sethekk part, which you need a decent group for.)
Instant-cast epic mount... whee!

Not sure how "long and complex" it was intended to be. The druids in my guild that had epic mounts completed the entire chain within a few hours of the server coming up.

That's easy, shift into Ghost Wolf and jump off the Aldor Rise. *nods* You'll fly... a little.

If you read the thing it's a few escorts and one heroic instance (so go run Shadow Labs until you're revered with Lower City).

It's now apparent that someone at Blizzard has a druid he or she loves very, very much. That idol alone would be worth a quest.
I don't know why anyone plays any other class but druid at this point.

My druid doesn't have Moonkin, ToL or LotP right now. In summary, this relic does nothing. HT/hybrid balance builds ftw!
Oh well :)
