Questline starts in Orgrimmar at [npc=149088].
Requirements: 120 and exalted with Thunder Bluff with your Tauren. Completed War Campaign on that account until you rescued Baine.
- When Spirits Whisper - meet Baine in Thunder Bluff
- The Spiritwalkers - fly to Camp Narache (South of TB), on the hill
- Spirit Guide - click the incense
- A Small Retreat - travel to Stonetalon Mountains, Sun Rock
- Crossing Over - click your quest item [item=166899], find, follow and defend [npc=149829]
- Storm in Bloodhoof - travel to Mulgore, Bloodhoof Village. Kill enemies and click villagers to fill the bar. Return to Baine in Thunder Bluff
- Answer the Call - speak to [npc=149547] to start the fight against [npc=149547]. Stand near [npc=150689]s to get help (like stackable buff [spell=291508])
- Thank Your Guide - go to the marked quest area on the top of the hill. Klick the offering. Turn in at [object=322737] near you and get [spell=290470] and [item=167860].
Now all of your Taurens may wear [transmog-set=2952] (Only 'classic' Taurens, not Highmountain, of course).
The name and appearance of the spirit guide appears to be randomized per player. Mine was Chieftain Tachuk, others have reported a Chieftain Hototo, and maybe there are others. Just a neat little thing I noticed.

Description
The balance has been restored, and Thunder Bluff is safe. Thank you. We owe our victory to your spirit's guidance. We must honor the old ways by giving thanks to the ones who came before us. To the southwest lies a beautiful vista where my father once took me. It would be a fitting place to reflect upon all that has transpired. Please take this offering there to honor our ancestors.

It is fortunate that Spiritwalker Ussoh passed along your spirit guide's warning. We were able to evacuate most of the citizens. This cursed spirit is full of malevolence and hatred. It must be destroyed, <name>! We attack on your command.
