Until Blizzard fixes it, when you turn in this quest, you will get a failed quest sound
with "You don't meet the requirements for that quest". Don't panic.You must by this time have finished Stebben's quests, listed above.
General Thorg'izog

SEVEN! YUP! [rewards Tiny Flamefly]
Blackened Ashes
A Heap of Delicious Worg
Latent Demons of the LandThen these three together:
Blood Tour
Draconic Vanguard
A Deal with a DragonGiven when third one above is completed: Placing the Pawns
Then these three:
A Delivery for Thorg'izog
A Delivery for Neeralak
A Delivery for Zi'lunAuto-accepted when above three are done:
Locked and LoadedAnd the epic conclusion:
Assault on Dreadmaul Rock
Glory Amidst Chaos
The Spoils of War
These guys are annoying for fire mages, because they seem to resist about 60 percent or so of your fire damage. my normally 800 dmg pyroblast hit for 350. and the chance to reflect spells doesnt help any either.

Obsidian-Flecked Cowl, 10g 50s, 4,100 XPDescription
Hope you're not afraid of getting dirty. Judging by the looks of you, that won't be a problem. To the north, at the lava's edge, you'll find piles of dark mud. I need it. It'd be best if you didn't ask questions, and focused your efforts on following orders, {name}.
Where to go

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Future Project
According to my father, we'll need worg hides, and lots of them. It doesn't matter if they're torn, burned, or bloody, but we need plenty of them. Actually, it's probably better if they're a little beat-up. You'll find worgs both to the west and to the east of here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sand, the Cider, and the Orb
Colonel Troteman is waiting for us to the east. Before we head out though, we need to gather some more stuff. This time, you'll be taking it from a warlock by the name of Gorzeeki Wildeyes. You'll probably find him to the northwest, near the Altar of Storms. Tell him he's going to help us out.
