Description

Well, it looks like it's time for us to part ways, at least for a while. To the northwest, the tauren of Freewind Post are in desperate need of your assistance in pushing back the Grimtotem clan! You know, you've been such a great help around here, I bet you're going to be their hero in no-time!

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.
