Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Keeping the Dogs at BaySouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

  Not everyone who fled Taurajo was able to make it to Una'fe, <name>. Some died of wounds along the way. Others were jumped by opportunistic quilboar. I'll take care of the grim task of finding and gathering the bodies. But there is something you can do for me.

After this quest

• Speaking Their LanguageSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

  The quilboar are attacking because they perceive weakness. Strength is the only language they understand. So we will show them strength. <Makaba withdraws a large horn from his satchel.> This is admittedly crude work but it'll do.
