Just a warning, this quest chain becomes increasingly emotional as it goes on. If you've recently experienced the loss of a loved one going through dementia or reduced cognitive ability, it may hit very close to home. Take care of yourself.

Engineers! This chain is part of unlocking the Earthen Allied Race. Part 9 awards a soulbound Engineering schematic.
I'm a bit older than the average WoW player, so I see a bit of myself in Korgran and think about my final plan. His was as good as any I can think of. Now to create Biergran in his honor.

What to do
Description
I can feel my energy reserves depleting. I will soon not be able to execute my duties. That is why I have Urtago here to take over. Before my systems grind to a halt, I must make sure Mourning Rise is free of kobolds. They have invaded the memorial site I tend and plunder the Unbound shrines and bodies that are there. Maybe it is good you are here. You may have the strength to help us. Please, help Urtago rid the site of kobolds.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To Mourning Rise
Greetings, outlander. My name is Urtago, and I am Caretaker Korgran's apprentice at the Mourning Rise memorial site. The mischievous Candlelit Kobolds have overrun Mourning Rise, and we seek assistance. Would you meet me at Fallside Outpost? It is just to the north of here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Honor Their Memories
Take these gifts and place them by the past caretakers. Each is a gift honoring their memory. I'd also like us to perform some light groundskeeping to at least maintain the site. Unfortunately, what these kobolds are doing to the memorials will take us weeks to fix.
