TheWoWDBThe real question is why a member of the Alliance should help a goblin establish a neutral (speak Horde) port in Kul Tiras, the nation they are currently attempting to convince to rejoin the Alliance.
Seems unwise.

Description
You look savvy enough to jump on an opportunity when one comes by and, pal, do I have one for you. See that cove down there? It's run by entrepreneurs with an eye towards meeting the logistical shortfalls that might come up in your typical city or town situation. Well, it's normally run by them. We have a bit of an infestation by folks who are more mercenary minded if you catch my meaning. You help me win back control of the cove and I'll see you're treated well. Sound good?
