Walking down into the badlands great scar,
My pac filled with eye, toes, dead hearts in jars,
I came to a dwarf who offered a drink
"I'll tell you a story!" He said with a wink.It was sunny that day" he said with a smirk on his face,
I was minding my business, starring into blue space.
When suddenly he came flying overhead
"Deathwing is back!", Said my comrades with dread!I made a solem promise, upheld to deaths embrace
I said, I'm gonna punch that dragon in the face!
The dragon had knocked loes a ton of foes
Only dang rocks waiting to be disposed!Fists filled with blood, I charged right on in
Punches that bursts those rocks from within
Hundreds of them with mindset to kill
Each one falling, fists like steel drills!I stood before him, his eyes open wide
Theres no where to run, no where to hide!
Fists wound up, jumped up with grand grace
Landing a blow right onto his face!He finished with his fist rased up in the air
His heroic pose, wind blowing in hair
To this day I remember Theldurin's tale
To a next adventure onward, on this grand boat at sail.OH GOD GIANT SQUID THING
OH GOD PEOPLE ARE DROWNING
OH GOD NAGA
HELP
Please Blizzard, make this quest chain a repeatable one - no loot, no money, nothing, just the quest itself. I swear I'd do it at least once a week and Im pretty sure I wont be the only one.

Description
Deathwing made quite a mess when he passed through these parts. If it weren't for me, he'd probably still be here, layin' waste to all the good people of the Badlands. What, you don't believe me? Fine, let me tell you the whole story.
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.

Not only was Theldurin's story wrong, it was boring, unimaginitive, and slow. I'll tell you how things really happened on that day.
