Description

You have saved my most precious companion, Nisha. I owe you a great debt.

The Iron Horde lured me away to separate us. I shall not make the same mistake again.

They have inflicted grievous wounds, and I fear we must cause her even more pain before the healing process can begin.

Please use a burning log from the nearby fire to cauterize her wounds.

I will hold her down.

Where to go

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • We Have CompanyGorgrond · Level 15-40

    Commander, I've spotted Iron Horde soldiers nearby. It is bold, even for them, to venture into such deadly territory. If we do not deal with their presence, they will surely be a threat to your camp. While I scout deeper into the canyons, may I request your help in investigating the camp?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • On the MendGorgrond · Level 15-40

    Nisha will heal. This ordeal has taken a toll on her. She needs water and rest. I will bring her to my camp and make her comfortable. Will you meet us there with some fresh water?
