Snorri is the 80 elite next to the king. You mount him and walk to a snow bump, pick it up, tab until you get a seething remnant, then throw the snowball. There is never a reason to stop moving on this quest since all abilities are instant-cast, including waking Snorri up when he falls asleep.

In case you're slightly retarded like me you have to mount the giant standing right next to the quest giver. Took me a while to figure that one out.
Njormeld despawns and you can't see him while you're in (on?) Snorri.
To turn in the quest, dismount from Snorri when it's complete and Njormeld will reappear for you.

What to do
Description
Snorri was once the pride of our nation. A mighty warrior, many an enemy fell to his club. We honor him, though he's no longer what he once was. Age has taken its toll, dulling his senses and sapping his strength. Still, he remains as proud as ever, never missing an opportunity to join a battle. Speaking of battle, we're cooling Fjorn's anvil so it can be taken home. The remaining fire revenants are putting up some resistance. Help Snorri relive his glory days, {race}. Guide him against this enemy.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- You Can't Miss Him
<Jokkum listens patiently to your request, then ponders it carefully before responding.> So it is you we have to thank for Fjorn's demise? While it's true that you have aided us in our time of need, there is still much that must be done to repair our relations with Thorim.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- In Memoriam
Surely Thorim has told you of the tragedy that divides us. It was in Thunderfall, northeast of here, that these events unfolded. The frozen fossils there are a reminder of that dark day, as are the spirits that haunt that place.
