An Introduction Is In Order

Description

I have heard of your exploits here in Desolace, <name>. We are in your debt.

I'm afraid I must involve you in yet another crisis, one more pressing than the rest.

The landscape is not all that has changed here of late. Old conflicts have made way for new, more dire ones. I should allow our guest to explain further....

Khan Leh'prah is among the last of the Kolkar tribe that once possessed all of eastern Desolace. We found him near death on our borders. Listen to his words.

You need to complete these two quests to unlock this quest chain:

[npc=36060] in Karnum's Glade, Desolace (58.2, 50.0)
A Time to Reap
Pulling Weeds
Taking Part

Also there is no prereq for her quests, so you can go straight to her when you enter Desolace.

Just to add a more descriptive list of the quests in this chain:

[npc=36052] in Karnum's Glade
An Introduction Is In Order (you must turn this in to Khan Leh'Prah before you can pick up his second one)
Cenarion Property Since the objectives are next to each other, you might as well do this and Khan Leh'Prah's follow up quest Breakout! at the same time.

[npc=36056] Next to Garren Darkwind in Karnum's Glade
Breakout!
Delicate Negotiations You will turn this in to [npc=36163]

[npc=36163] Magram Territory (71.6, 45.6), he shows up after you complete the objective for Delicate Negotiations
Will Work For Food
My Word is My Bond

[npc=36056] in Karnum's Glade
Three Princes This will be turned in to [npc=36185]

[npc=36185] He is inside the cave in the southern area of the Gelkis Village (40.4, 95.6)
Not So Fast! Valley of Spears (32, 60.4)

Having this final quest will allow [item=38567] to drop from [npc=4656], and so start the new quest chain starting with Behind Closed Doors.

It's very nice to see Blizzard taking some of the quests in the game that had a lot of potential such as the centaur quests in Desolace and flushing them out. As I can already tell, they've most definitely made these one's worth doing. As I recall, the centaur never really got much love from Blizz is terms of quests. Sure there were the one's in the Barrens, but it was just grinding them away to take their territory away and killing their leaders.

Hopefully this is the beginning of Blizz actually caring about lore in their game again :D
