TheWoWDBThis can be done at the same time as Simple Solutions and Mercy for the bound. Basically just start off in the ruins of the keep and kill everything while collecting the Pyreburn Oil.

Only the Twilight Bonecrusher's count towards the count for this quest. I just killed everything I saw and realize that it didn't help after the third senseless murder. So I ended up wasting mana, health, and my time for no reason...stupidity at it's finest : /
