Bravo Company back in business. I still have your bandana, buddy.
Anyone noticed that he's holding Sylvanas's bow? Yes I double checked the Lordaeron's cinematic and it is the one. Yet again, the character kind of represents the Hollywood movie badass that can do anything!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lessons of the Damned
When I arrived here in disguise, the blood trolls thought me some sort of messenger of their Blood God. I seized the advantage and played into their primitive beliefs. I came here intending to open trade and learn how we can work with them against the Horde.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Return to Boralus
I think that's enough excitement for today, lad! Why don't ya get back ta Wyrmbane and tell the man we've got this place all under control. I'll make sure the blood trolls don't get any more of our folk! Ha!
