Description
The tunnel ahead, headin' west, will take you straight to Chief Prospector Hondo's office. He's the big cheese around here, and Tak'arili's heard tell that he's a darn fine miner. That's why he's gotta die. There's just one problem: the pathway is completely FILLED with those pesky Nethergarde flunkies. That's why you gotta disguise yourself. Hop inside this box here, and sneak down the pathway. Hopefully you won't draw too much suspicion on your way to da killin'.
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.
- That's Not Us
First things first... it looks like we got ourselves a problem. These miners down the pathway to the right have been runnin' around like a chickens without they heads on. My best guess is that they dug too deep and found somethin' nasty... a demon, an elemental, or some kind o' tentacley beast.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mission Complete
We be done here, mon. Only thing left to do is send a report to Okrilla. You doin' anything right now?
