Just some speculation. In the data mining, we have a place known as Junker Gnome Caverns. In the Junkheap, there seems to be a large door like thing, which I think is where this place may be located. Because the questline didn't finish and every single one of the gnomes disappeared in Beralus, it is my guess that this may be a hint toward a Junker Gnome allied race for probably the Alliance. From what we have seen, all races will get some type of Allied Race related to them. And if you look at the Stormwind Embassy, Mekkatorque is there and it is possible that he may be the one to bring them in.

This is all just speculation, so who knows? But I find it off that the quest line never really ended. And I don't remember ever getting a letter from him like others have said. Maybe only Engineers, but I still believe that this questline may be a hint.

Description

The sentry bots here are definitely of gnomish make. If the creator had any sort of proper education, each machine should have some sort of serial code on it. And if they've been properly documented, I might be able to use those codes to track that gnome down. Do you think you could bring a few of them back to me?
