Description
Look at the chaos down there, {name}! I've instructed the foremen to save what artifacts they can. Who knows what treasures these tauren animals are like to make off with. Can you help get a handle on things? Kill the raiders and save what artifacts you can. While you're at it, look for my missing tools. A few quick repairs and I can get this flying machine up and running again.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Digsite Status
The patrol's been quiet today. And that's got me worried, <name>. Ever since the Alliance sacked Taurajo, none of our positions are secure. You look like you can handle yourself - can you scout around for me? Check in with my son Marley outside the Bael Modan excavation, southeast of here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Feegly the Exiled
Saddest story I ever heard told, <name>. Feegly was one of our fastest diggers, until he got a hold of that - thing. "The Tear of the Moons" we called it. It changed him. Remade him. I wish it had stayed buried.
