Notably, this quest has a different description and completion text if you're playing a practitioner of dark arts (in this case Warlock).
The Arathi Empire is one founded on faith, in both the Emperor and the Light. If my elder ever saw the sorts of things you practice, he would urge me to strike you down where you stand.
Still, my better half would urge me to be more welcoming. That we must rely on each other to survive here.
I want to be a better man. For her.
Some of the salamanthers in Rumshackle have been bothering us. Kill them and bring me proof.Oh. You did it.
Elder Fraink would say that you are trying to lull me into a false sense of hope. Those are the sorts of tactics you would use.

What to do
Description
For many years, the only non-Arathi we ever saw in Hallowfall were trying to kill us. Nerubians, shadow creatures, beasts. So, forgive me if I view your sudden arrival with suspicion. However, my better half would urge me to be more welcoming... and I want to try to be better. For her. Some of the salamanthers in Rumshackle have been bothering us. Kill them and bring me proof.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- For Morale
Please excuse my husband's rudeness. When we signed up for our expedition, we expected to be away from our families for a few years at worst. Instead, we settled here as we guard against--well, against the end, against Renilash. Who knows when our watch will end?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Prove One's Mettle
Yes, you helped us out with these pests, but it is not enough. I need more. One of the areas near our town has been overrun by shadow. If you are truly not being controlled by your... strange background, you would have no problem destroying the source of this danger, would you?
