If the quest text doesn't make a damn bit of sense, here is a translation:

Leave the cave.

At the cave mouth, turn left.

Follow the path around to the back of the hill.

You will see some vehicles on fire.

As you approach, Grolvitar will appear.

Kill him.

Collect gold from Darla Drilldozer.

Description

Land's sakes, pardner! You done shut off those valves but good. Unfortunately we've had a critical blowout in our gosh-darned central burnoff regulator! Missus Darla's done sent as many workers as she can rustle to go shut it off, but those flames have a mind of their own! Literally! They're hoppin' up and grabbin' anyone who comes near! So Darla says if you can muster up out of that cave you're in and beat that elemental, she's got a mighty fine prize in store for ya!

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.

  • A Bomb DealFelwood · Level 15-30

    All my workers got driven straight out of the cavern here by those big swamp-lookin' things! Darla's sent me here to pick up the pieces, but have you seen it in there? I ain't goin' in! There's a ton of explosives left behind that we can't just leave layin' around.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Stupid Drizle!Felwood · Level 15-30

    Stupid, stupid Drizle! I told him not to go! Drizle wanted to steal more honey from Felpaw Village... you know, just west of here? You can see it from the cliff... Anyway... I told him it was a dumb idea but he went anyway, and then the Deadwood tribe got him, and... and... Sniff...
