Description

As soon as we stopped, they made a bet about "who could kill the most undead in five minutes."

It's been an hour, and I'm still waiting for them to come back.

I saw Tarenar run off to the southeast. Unfortunately, I can't leave the caravan here by itself. If you end up traveling in that direction, could you find him and send him back to me?

Considering they are dwarf and elf, and this line:

As soon as we stopped, they made a bet about "who could kill the most undead in five minutes."


My guess it is some sort of reference to LOTR movie and its Gimli vs. Legolas counts on orc kills. =))

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Greasing the WheelEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    Sorry about that. I was pretty sure you were one of those spider-beasts, doing a bad <race> impression. How do you do? Gidwin Goldbraids, at your service. I'm in a bit of a hurry back to my caravan, but I was wondering if you might do me one last favor?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • What I Do BestEastern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    I remember when I was young, I would sneak off into the Ghostlands and just beat up zombies for hours on end. Nobody even PAID me. I just did it. Now, look in front of you. Those are some serious zombies. I was just about to start beating them up, too. Care to join me?
