Description
The sethrak's attacks on our burrows cannot go unanswered. They need to learn that not all within the desert will give up so easily. The only thing the sethrak understand is blood, so that's the language we'll use to teach them. <Nisha pauses and looks at you, skeptical that you understood her.> I'm saying we need to kill the sethrak here. All of them.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dressed for Battle
Kiro's the leader of my caravan. He's always been far too passive. I warned him we needed to make a preemptive strike against the sethrak, but he insisted that we keep our heads down and continue to quietly do business. Look where that got us. Our caravan was completely unprepared for their attack.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Plans for Attack
Before we were attacked, I had a plan to take the fight to the sethrak. It was devised with flawless intel. I know, because I gathered the information myself. I surveyed their entire compound and created a map based on my findings.
