A World of Warcraft quest in Icecrown. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
The easiest way to complete this quest is to know where the Abominations are and where the Burning Skeletons are before you really start.
The very bottom platform (Coords: 31.0, 69.2) has about 6 Abominations chained to the edge of it. This is where you will be leading the burning skeletons.
About 70 yards East-NorthEast of that (Coords: 32.8, 67.0), there is a path. You can find a lot of unguarded skeletons hands sticking out of the dirt. Then you just run down the cliffside and lead them to an abomination.
Do this three times and you will be set.
Good Luck!
DO NOT go to where the map shows you to go, it is exactly where you don't need to go, also, don't go into the cave, you need nothing from the cave

The workers in the Fleshwerks abomination lab have already completed a number of their creations. For now, the creatures are chained to the pillars around the edge of the lab, but if we do not act, they will march with the Lich King's armies. Grasping arms reach out of the bone piles spread throughout the Fleshwerks. These arms belong to skeletons enchanted with the power of fire. Find and free these skeletons, then take them near the completed abominations and watch the show!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- By Fire Be Purged
The Scourge uses our own fallen against us, by raising them as ghouls or skeletons, or by dismembering their corpses and using the parts to make abominations. This must stop! The dead are heroes who fell in defense of all the living, and they cannot be confined to so grisly a fate.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- He's Gone to Pieces
With the abduction of Crusader Olakin, the Argent Crusade's forces will have no commander in the final assault on the Fleshwerks. While one crusader is the same as any other to me, the argents won't see it that way. I hate to see us waste time chasing after this, but I have no choice.
