Description
Okay, I've softened this guy up, how about you help me finish him off?
I've got a plan for our escape, but it'll require a lot of guts and a little luck.
The "followup" for this quest is from completing the side quest quest you pickup from a drop off the Air Officers (Efficient Excavations). This starts another quest chain at Schnottz's Landing, the completion of which sends you to Sullah, who gives you a long quest chain ending in a quest sending you into the Halls of Origination.
Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
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.
Quests whose map markers the client places closest to this one on Uldum, nearest first. Distances are straight lines between the markers.

This guy just won't go down! You're doin' great, kid. Only one thing left to do. According to my research, there should be a titan statue down below. Use the device to activate it, then break it down. If my theory is correct, that statue holds the key to reactivating this obelisk.
The commander is quite busy now, I'm afraid. The demands of an operation such as this require much of his attention these days. While you wait to speak with him, why don't you mingle with some of our guests?
