Note that your action bar is replaced with an ability to use the spear. If you don't notice this, you'll do as I did, and ride the centaur back to the glen; talk to the quest giver again and get another ride over and use #1 this time...

What to do

StorylineDesolace, step 45 of 63

Description

There is but one way to win the trust and loyalty of the Magram. It must be beaten out of them. They have suffered many losses in their war against my clan. They now possess an unfamiliar land, where they struggle just to feed themselves. Now is the time to strike. Speak to me when you are ready, then ride in and plant my spear in the Fatherstone. If we can kill enough of them, their Khan will submit to our will.

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.

  • Will Work For FoodDesolace · Level 10-30

    <Khan Kammah listens as you explain the demonic threat, and Khan Leh'prah's visions.> No one need lecture us about the demons, <race>. It is they who drove our clan from our ancestral lands. It is they who forced us to take over the Kolkar wastelands, where we struggle just to exist.
