Description
The pirate thieves have set up port at Scalawag Point, far to the south. Unfortunately, they have fortified their camp with many deadly defenses. There is someone that might be able to assist us in infiltrating Scalawag. A pirate mercenary by the name of Grezzix Spindlesnap recently came to our village in search of food and shelter. In exchange he gives us information about our enemies and feeds them misinformation about our attack plans. Seek him out at his ship just off the coast here - southwest.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Elder Atuik and Kamagua
<Orfus bundles up the clues you brought him.> My people are bitterly entrenched in a war with the Northsea Freebooters. If any tuskarr could help us in our quest to right the wrongs of the pirates, it will be Elder Atuik of Kamagua. You must take these clues to him at once.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Feeding the Survivors
We tuskarr rely mostly on our fish catch for sustenance. In times of great need, however, we will on occasion hunt land animals. The nearby village of Iskaal was recently attacked by pirates and the survivors just keep pouring in.
