What to do
Description
I understand you may be headed to Zul'Kunda soon. While you are there, I have a small task for you. The trolls are outgrowing Stranglethorn. The Bloodscalp in the West, the Skullsplitters in the East... they pour out of their ruins and into the jungle, disrupting the natural balance of the region. It is time we restored that balance. Zul'Kunda is the Bloodscalp capital. Inside you will find the most high-ranking Bloodscalps. Reduce their numbers, then return to me.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Who's a Big Troll?
<The skull speaks once more.> My soul is ready, but my body is not. The Bloodscalps desecrated my old body long ago. The horrors that they inflicted upon me... my spirit watched on while they tore my body apart and, and... I can't go on. Their chief, Gan'zulah, presided over the gruesome acts.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Skullsplitter Mojo
<The skull speaks again.> I have my body, thanks to you, your raptor, and Gan'zulah. Now, if I remember correctly, you and your witch doctor friend will need some mojo to complete this ritual. The Bloodscalps keep mojo in Zul'Kunda, but it is weak. Your Darkspears' mojo will not work either. No...
