Description

Cold out here, isn't it, {race}? Ko'char has refused to meet with me. It seems he has more pressing things on his mind - namely, the jormungar that have been attacking them from the cavern below. Maybe you can help me convince Ko'char that I'm one of the good guys. I saw a giant being eaten by some of the worms at the entrance to the cavern north of here... I'm still puzzled as to how the worms are killing them so easily. Bring me a sample from one of his wounds.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Harp on This!Dragonblight · Level 15-30

    <class>, did you see that? That's the harpy that's been leading the attack on our shipments to the gate! I've seen her in the back of Coldwind Heights before. Those harpies have slowed our profits long enough! Kill them all.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Messy BusinessDragonblight · Level 15-30

    Even at first glance, the sample you brought me shows obvious signs of some kind of corrosive spit. It would be a natural assumption that the same substance these worms use to burrow through the ground has allowed them a formidable weapon against the Ice Giants.
