What to do
Description
With their wolf pack reduced, the Horde is looking for replacements. Unfortunately there's another source nearby. The Bloodmaul ogres in the ravine below to the east keep a strong pack as their own sentries. I hated sending you to kill the Thunderlord wolves, so why don't we do something different this time? I've derived a magic powder from the dust that naturally falls off the wings of our fey drakes. Sprinkle it on the Bloodmaul dire wolves to make them undesirable to the Horde.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Protecting Our Own
Though you've done a great deal of good work in defense of our new home here, I still feel that the Living Grove needs more protection. Please, take this small tree bough that I have imbued with the force of nature.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Bloodmaul Ogres
There is a threat to Sylvanaar far deadlier than the Horde at Thunderlord Stronghold. I'm speaking of the native ogres of these mountains. Just to the south and east, down in the ravine, lives the Bloodmaul clan. While they aren't the only group of ogres that threaten us here, they are the closest.
