Description

It's me, <name>, Ortell!

Don't look directly at the outhouse... you'll give away my position.

Everything's going according to plan then? Excellent!

I'm going to need you to obtain some intelligence while you're here. It might not seem like much to get our hands on a map or a letter, but it may mean saving a hundred lives on our side if we can anticipate our enemy's next move.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Grudge MatchMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    I don't know if you've picked up on this, but there's a bit of a rivalry between the ogre members of the Twilight's Hammer and the rest of us. For me... it's personal. This one ogre called Gromm'ko has a pet raptor named "Butcher." He's taken out the last three of my corehound pups.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Seeds of DiscordMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    According to the intelligence you acquired, there is major friction between the ogres and non-ogres in the cult. High Cultist Azennios and the ogre mage Karr'gonn are meeting at the Seat of the Chosen in an attempt to ease the conflict. There is an outhouse like this one at the Seat of the Chosen.
