Description
We've received word from Khadgar that he's lost contact with the mages he sent to investigate the Legion's camps. He's requested our assistance in tracking them down. If we have any hope of locating those mages, we'll need to find ourselves a reliable hound capable of following a scent. There is only one such hound that I know of, and he's long since retired. It's worth it to check in with his master, Hunstman Blake, and see if old Baron still has it in him.

- Awakening the Senses
I'm afraid old Baron here is past his prime. His nose can't catch a scent the way it used to. Others told me to put him down, but I can't bear the thought of losing my loyal friend. Baron was always at his best when working, though.
