Bounty on Murlocs is an Alliance-only quest for level 1-30 in Elwynn Forest. It is step 18 of 30 in the Elwynn Forest storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Elwynn Forest at 74.0, 72.2. It rewards 6 reward items, 1 reputation reward and 4,100 experience.
Description
The Stormwind Army has placed a bounty on murloc lurkers and foragers in Elwynn. Slaughter them and bring Guard Thomas their torn murloc fins, and the Stormwind Army will reward you well.
The murlocs have built a village at Stone Cairn Lake north of here, and another to the south where the stream forks.
The murlocs are located upstream the river and to the northeast. They are easily spotted by their island-style huts, and the fins don't take too long to drop but the murlocs are very difficult to face alone at level 10. Tough quest imho.
Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
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.
Quests whose map markers the client places closest to this one on Elwynn Forest, nearest first. Distances are straight lines between the markers.

Straight-line distances in yards between the quest’s own map markers (QuestPOI) and the client’s flight-point positions (TaxiNodes); flight paths and terrain are not modelled.
If you are concerned that the rumors of murlocs are true, then do this -- travel to the eastern Elwynn bridge and speak with Guard Thomas. He has been stationed at the bridge for the past week and will know the state of the area. I have here a Stormwind charger that will take you to Guard Thomas.
By decree of the Stormwind Army, a bounty has been placed on the head of James Clark. Clark is wanted for robbery, burglary, arson, and murder. He is also a suspect in the kidnapping and disappearance of the Brackwell's prized pig, Princess.
Steps, storylines and map placement from the client’s QuestLine, prerequisite and QuestPOI data; neighbouring quest text is Blizzard’s own (quest API), shortened to its opening sentences.
