So, if there's a hunter that is hunting hunters, and we're hunting the hunter hunting hunter, does that mean that the hunter hunting hunter has become the hunted hunter hunting hunter?
Lol this quest was hilarious actually.
I was expecting to see Nagrand-style The Nesingwary Safari quests, but now he is a pray.

What to do
Description
Your hunter king, Nesingwary, is a mighty fine bit of prey here. I even thought of hunting him myself. But someone else is on his trail now. And dat hunter, he is a dangerous one. If you wish to save your hunter king, you best start tracking quickly. If he made camp, you may be too late already. You cannot paint a target and wonder why you were shot! I believe he was last seen heading west...
