Why in bob's name would he write all that crap down? Surely he should've realized it MIGHT GET FOUND? Dar'Khan, you may have once had a stylin' hat, but you are just stupid as hell. (And you ain't got chicken neither.)

What to do
Description
As you skim through the pages in the journal you're overcome by an unnerving sense of being watched. The contents are unsettling. Dar'Khan's soul was one filled with hatred and contempt for his own people. The extent of his machinations and plots are all documented in great detail. Perhaps there is something here that Vynna will find useful.
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.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Farstrider Enclave
