What to do
Description
I need you to take this back to Mountaineer Kadrell. Show it to him and tell him the nasty critters around here might be having some kind of get-together.
Where to go
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Who's In Charge Here?
Dorli's filled me in on this crazy trogg-slave operation the kobolds have going, and if you haven't talked to her about it yet, I suggest you do. I'd like to get to the bottom of this. Literally!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Axis of Awful
Alright, now just shut yer gob and lemme talk, 'cause here's the plan. Those gnolls and murlocs are liable to be meetin' out there somewhere. So you take this clever plant disguise of mine, and you wear it and look like a plant.
