I find it annoying that the end of the quest says, "Farseer Grimwalker smiles and sits down for a well-deserved rest," when I'm the one who did all the work and all he did was lie there and wait for a rez. How the heck does he deserve a rest?

Description

{name}, now that my spirit has been freed would you do me the honor of returning my remains to Spirit Talker Snarlfang? They lay upon the ground beneath me. I sense that the spirit talker is still at Bor'gorok Outpost to the west where last I saw her.

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.

  • KaganishuBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    After my small force of grunts were killed, I was dragged down here and ritually murdered. The snobold who did this is known as Kaganishu. Though you have vanquished his shaman helpers, my spirit is still tethered to this place.

After this quest

  • Taking Back Mightstone QuarryBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    While Warsong is protected by 10 feet of steel and stone on all sides, this quarry is soft and primed for attacks by the Nerubians. <Razgor points west.> Beyond this quarry stand thousands of Scourge, awaiting orders to attack.
