I had a blank space in my bag and it was driving me nuts trying to figure out what used to be there. After searching my SavedVariables, I finally came to the conclusion that it was this. Thank you for confirming.

Description

While awaiting your innards-bestowing return, I observed some fascinating activity below. A consistent train of kobyss are dragging the limp bodies of my kin from the lake's waters and westerly into their cavern. My conclusion? Nerubians are being hunted and stored in the lake for consumption by these beasts. It's not so much for research than it is for civic duty, but I would reward you might be able to save from their fate.

Where to go

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Moonlight Gutter SwimAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    An Ascended's leg... A kobyss tribe feasting one or two dozen trueborns or skitterlings, perhaps even a sageform such as myself... But an Ascended is a different story. Let us approach this as intellectuals, and use the tools at our disposal to collect more data. What tools do we have? You.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Grand, Gutsy SolutionsAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    I require one final piece of data. These beasts think. They organize. They coordinate. To be characteristically honest, there's nothing worse than an amphibian with an abacus. My final task for you: Bring me the brain of the biggest beast. I need it fresh, and preferably non-liquified.
