You must by this time have finished Stebben's quests, listed above.

Description

The lava beds nearby - to the west - play host to flamekin, a brand of fire demon that has long roamed the steppes. Situations are such in the Blackrock army that, if we are careful, we may be able to sneak some of these flamekin behind enemy lines to cause some havoc. Bring me the bodies of several flamekin. As demons, they are easily resurrected, and then we can use them for our own purposes.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Blackened AshesBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    I need you to do some more gathering before we can go take out the remainder of the Blackrock army. If we're going to do this, we're going to do it right, and that means being prepared. I need ash, <name>. Not just any ash...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Heap of Delicious WorgBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    We're going to need fresh meat, which means you're going to be hunting worg. The worg on this side of the steppes should be your target. <Troteman produces a large blade, which he hands to you.> Hunt the giant ember worgs.
