Jale Rivermane, is the WORST NPC Blizzard EVER created! On top of her voice being the WORST in WoW history, she ALSO manages to be one of those "helper" or "assistant" type of NPC's who is CONSTANTLY right by you, and standing right on top of any corpse you had killed, making it near impossible to actually click on the corpse and get your loot!
I'm sorry if this comment is not very helpful, I just had to say this all about her. No matter what quest she gives or is involved with, she is horrible. This is the worst quest with or involving her though, since she "helps" or "assists" the player.
While doing this quest, make sure to periodically stand on the [npc=95871] (large blue water drops) you see roaming around.
They give you a [spell=195525] buff which nets 150% movement speed for 30 seconds.
