After Mankrik follows you, he has this conversation with Mahka:

Mahka: Look at this land, Mankrik. The Horde and Alliance tear the earth apart just to claw at each other in spite.
Mahka: Such hatred is only bringing us destruction. I can see it in you as you fight the quilboar... your anger does nothing but wear you away.
Mahka: You're destroying yourself, Mankrik.
Mankrik: There is nothing left for me. I seek a warrior's death. Is that wrong?
Mahka: You seek escape, not glory. It's suicide.
Mankrik: So what if it is? Why do you even care?
Mahka: Because...
Mahka: Because despite what you think, there may be people in this world who would mourn your passing.
Mankrik: Mahka...
Mahka: Please, Mankrik. Let go. Set down your blade.
Mankrik: This hatred has burned in me for years, Mahka. Your words cannot lift it from me so easily.
Mahka: Then... you do not need to bear it alone. Just sit next to me and forget your troubles, if only for a while.
Mahka: Come see me whenever you are weary.
Mankrik nods.
Mankrik: ...thank you, Mahka.

Description

I can't put him out of my mind, {name}. Sometimes at night, I can hear his howls of rage and suffering, echoing across the plains. To imagine him out there, alone and in such pain... Please, I must ask a favor of you. Go to Mankrik, and tell him to come see me.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • MangletoothSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Una here used to spend time in Camp Taurajo. She's told me about a quilboar that used to be captured there, named Mangletooth. Quite the clever one, for a quilboar. I've been tryin' to think what got these quilboar riled up so much recently, and it might be that Mangletooth escaped Taurajo alive.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Don't Stop Bereavin'Southern Barrens · Level 10-30

    For a moment, I thought my hatred had stilled. My wife laid to rest, a final offering of the blood of her murderers to quell her tortured spirit. I thought perhaps peace would appeal to me. I was wrong.
