Quest Log

The Damaged Journal (Horde)

The Damaged Journal is a Horde-only quest for level 15-30 in Grizzly Hills. It is step 108 of 115 in the Grizzly Hills storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Grizzly Hills at 65.2, 47.8. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

This battered, mud-stained journal has seen better days. Leafing through the pages, you discover dozens of notes, diagrams, and maps in the dwarven language.

The only text you're able to decipher is the name of Brann Bronzebeard scrawled at the end of one of the entries.

The back half of the book, containing the most recent entries, has been torn away. Someone thought the notes important enough to attempt to destroy them. Perhaps gathering the missing pages from the battlefield will yield some clues.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Bringing Down the Iron ThaneGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    Now that the golem is fully charged, it can be used against the leader at Dun Argol. When I observed Iron Thane Furyhammer, he was always guarded by a personal golem that shielded him from all harm. That construct, called The Anvil, can be disrupted, causing him to drop the shield.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Deciphering the JournalGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    Vor'takh is right -- we cannot allow this opportunity to slip through our fingers. Fortunately, I think I know of a way to translate the journal of this Brann. The shamans of the Redfang furbolgs, who congregate at the Heart's Blood Shrine south of the camp, grow an herb known as spiritsbreath.
