What to do
Description
The harpies seem to be in league with the ogres. Many of them are gathering to attack our camp. We must thin their numbers and thwart their attempts to eliminate us. Perhaps they will learn it is best to leave the Horde be.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Rescue of Herbert Gloomburst
The harpies plan to sacrifice the expedition's mage, a Forsaken by the name of Herbert Gloomburst. Herbert's ethics are... questionable, but he always strives to serve the Horde. We'll need his magic to stop the ogres. Let's move.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Purge the Totems
The harpies have placed vile totems throughout the area to attain more power. We must destroy those totems in order to debilitate our foes. Take this torch and burn any totems you see. It is wise to weaken one's enemy before the fight even begins.
