Description

Since I am helping you, I'm sure you won't mind returning the favor.

I have a constant need for fresh, untainted meat, which is quite hard to come by. The Oasis is off limits, but the wildlife roaming these sands?

I've got a list of what I need. Bring me those items, and I'll tell you what you need to know.

Am I the only one wondering why we can find quite some Swoopwing eggs but not even one actual Swoopwing across all K'aresh - or even Azeroth?
I guess the question whether the chicken or the egg came first is now answered.

We may have gotten off on the wrong foot, but there's something you should know. That old slateback you used to haul all those imports? I thought it was just another worn-out nag, but it turns out it was the real treasure all along. A rare bluecephalus, worth a fortune!
