Description

Ever since I was a cub, I've always wanted to be a general.

I was eager to join the army. But as you've seen, my combat skills are not all quite there.

This is not the first time I've been sent to kill hyenas. As a matter of fact, I get sent here so often, that I've befriended these lions and trained them to do my bidding.

They are my soldiers and at my command they will slay legions of hyenas. Watch!

What's up with this quest? I was able to get the first hyenas to appear, and then i get the message "They approach from both sides in great numbers now!" But i don't see any hyenas. Stood there waiting for 15 minutes and didn't see any of them. I can't move the lions either, but i can use the fear ability.

I've tried to do it for about 4-5 times now and same thing happens every single time.

  • Salhet's SecretUldum · Level 30-35

    Listen, <name>. Before you give up on me, there's something I'd like to show you. You see, I'm not much of a fighter. I'm not very coordinated. I'm more of a tactical mind. Meet me at the southern end of the ridge and I'll show you.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to CampUldum · Level 30-35

    What do you think, <name>? Maybe the High Commander will give me a few men to command. Maybe we can marshal a regiment together. What do you think?
