Notice the two pirates in the nearby cage offering a bone to the dog? This looks like a scene from "Pirates of the Caribbean, Curse of the Black Pearl". A couple of locked up pirates tired to bride a dog who had the jailers key into approaching them so they could get the key.

could have sworn i have his head somewhere
As of Cataclysm Baron Longshore has been captured by the Alliance and held in the stockade at 69,85. Likely to be executed he will bargain for your assistance. He no longer moves about between locations and now stays in the one place.

What to do
Description
That dirty pirate Baron Longshore was the terror of these waters before the Alliance demolished his fleet and rounded up the survivors. Am I happy about it? Do I look like a bundle of joy and good cheer, {name}? Longshore raided some of my most valuable cargo before his capture. Rumor has it he buried it before he was caught. I want my goods back! Find Longshore in the Alliance camp just south of here and see if you can get him to reveal where my treasure is.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mutiny, Mon!
Now for my favorite part of any mutiny: the killin'! For pirates, it doesn't matter who's supposed to be in charge, only who's in control of the ships. Anchored on the east end of this island is the Maiden's Dagger, Cap'n Garvey's old flagship.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Baron's Demands
I'm bound fer that gallows fer sure, mate. That treasure's no good to me now... Unless I can use it ta buy me life. I'll make a deal with ye, <race>. Smash these manacles and I'll tell ye where me treasure's buried. Oh, me word is good, friend. I used ta be a real Baron, ye know.
