Alright, take this and apply it to his wounds. If the cauterizing effect of the flash dry explosion doesn't crack him wide open, it should completely heal him. I think.
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.
- Something that Burns
Alright, we need something that's going to make the compound go, "Boom"! I'm all out of gun powder, but I think I know what we can use instead... the heart of my fire elemental! Here, take my fire totem east to the Blood Trail.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Take Him to the Earthcaller
He still looks a little loopy to me. His head must still be ringing. Best get him inside the temple and see what the Earthcaller wants to do with him. I think I'm going to stay out here a little while longer and "observe" these rock flayers.
