If you walk to Morgan's Vigil and choose to kill something on the way, our beloved John J. Keeshan will shout the following:
Oh no... I'm not done with you.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
You want more? YOU WANT MORE?
There's nowhere for you to run. The disease is inside you.
Stay out of Redridge!
AAAAHHHHH!
Killin's as easy as breathin'.

What to do
Description
Our work here in Chiselgrip is done, mostly thanks to you. We'll now be moving on to the east, to Morgan's Vigil. Our intel indicates that Morgan's Vigil has been vacated, as most of its inhabitants have moved into Blackrock Mountain to fight their own battle against the Blackrocks. It should serve as a sufficient base of operations for the final stages of our plan. Of course, Keeshan will be joining you on the road. As will I.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Enough Damage For One Day
We do not have any further strategic need for Thorg'izog or the Blackrock ground troops. We must continue to the next phase of the plan. When you are finished at the stronghold, return to my son and me, here in Chiselgrip.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Flame Crest
Our work here in Chiselgrip is done, mostly thanks to you. We'll now be moving on to the northeast, to Flame Crest. Flame Crest is in the cliffs, past the Ruins of Thaurissan. It should serve as a sufficient base of operations for the final stages of our plan.
