Just a small town boar, livin in razorfen kraul
She took the midnight path going anywhere.......
Just a city orc, born and raised by the horde
He took the midnight path going anywhere.....

Avenger in a smokey plain
Smell of wine and guts and pain
For his wife they can bleed all night
It goes on and on and on and on!

(yes, it sucks. Ive had my fun)

The quest name is a reference to the song "Don't stop believin'" by Journey as well as a reference to Mankrik's ongoing battle with the Quilboar in revenge for the death of his wife from the classic quest "Lost in Battle".

The original quest to seek out Mankrik's wife is part of the reason why sites like Wowhead exist. Mankrik's wife was notoriously difficult to find as there were no instructions to her location with the question "Where is Mankrik's wife?" entering into Barren's chat and WoW legend.

Description

For a moment, I thought my hatred had stilled. My wife laid to rest, a final offering of the blood of her murderers to quell her tortured spirit. I thought perhaps peace would appeal to me. I was wrong. I will not rest now until every single filthy, squealing, murderous quilboar lays dead and broken! I cannot kill them fast enough with my own two hands. Go and slay more for me, {race}.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Mahka's PleaSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    I can't put him out of my mind, <name>. Sometimes at night, I can hear his howls of rage and suffering, echoing across the plains. To imagine him out there, alone and in such pain... Please, I must ask a favor of you. Go to Mankrik, and tell him to come see me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • MangletoothSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    I no longer care for honor or glory, <class>. All that matters to me is that the quilboar die, by any means, at anyone's hand. Mangletooth, the chief of these filthy Razormane, sits in his lair to the northwest, atop a hill. End his life.
