Description

Karg's captors are moving east - probably retreating to Grom'gar with their tails between their legs! They think they outrun me, but Asha here is the fastest thing on four legs. We'll run them down in the Icewind Drifts.

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.

  • Into the BoneslagFrostfire Ridge · Level 10-40

    The Thunderlords took prisoners into the Boneslag? Well what are we waiting for?! We have to go after them! You look for the missing villagers - Asha and I will track Karg.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Strength of Our BondsFrostfire Ridge · Level 10-40

    Asha has passed, but we share a bond that cannot be severed by death. Even now, her spirit urges me onward to Grom'gar. The Iron Wolf claims our attachments make us weak... that love makes us vulnerable. He is wrong. Karg is my strength, and I his.
