TheWoWDBThis is really strange to me because I'm an alliance and I put my mouse over a stormwind royal guard and my quest helper said "Slay for THE ALLIANCE NEEDS THICK LEATHER! For THICK LEATHER. It was weird.

Description
Oh boy, this is going to be great! {class}, the Ahn'Qiraj war effort is in full swing, and I've been put in charge of keeping track of all of the thick leather that comes in. We'll make tons of things with it, but first we need to get a ton of it. And I mean that literally! That's where you come in. So, do you think you can go out there and bring me back a nice, fat stack of thick leather? Do yah, do yah?!

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.
