Currently on the beta this quest will send you to the bottom of the cave looking for the intel but it is actually right next to Thukmar. Hopefully they fix this but if they don't, at least you'll be able to find the intel. =D

The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
When inside the cave for related "Kill X" quest, Fair Warning, go all the way to the bottom. You will find Corporal Thukmar near the end of the circular descent, next toa campfire. The quest will update to get his Intel, which is sitting right beside him. Recover it, and the quest is ready for turn in.
Once done, there will be a tunnel right next to Borogahn at the bottom of the cave. Interacting with it "burrows" you all the back to Rexxar, who is now situated where Nisha dropped you off.
you can choose to kill Thukmar aswell as he was being *eaten alive*, yummy.

What to do
Description
The ogron possess something of value to the Iron Horde. I am sure they're unaware, likely just bored and in need of something to torture. We could simply leave them to their fate, but we should follow up on this clue. With any luck, it will help us stop the Iron Horde from turning Gorgrond's most fearsome creatures into weapons. Try to find Corporal Thukmar and his notes.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- What's Under There?
It is done. With this enchantment, not only can you roam amongst the goren freely, but you can move as they do. Your travels through the canyon are now made easier. You have safe access to places otherwise impossible to reach.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fair Warning
The ogron here are far from brilliant, but they are more intelligent than the gronn. They're large, and even stronger than they look. Their leader, Borogahn, is especially formidable. Despite several fights, I have not yet managed to kill him. Heed my words, friend.
