The strangest part of this quest was that Shan Bu was skinnable (and for silver coins at that).

What to do
Description
Lei Shen found a clutch of rare storm dragon eggs early in his campaign. One - known as Nalak - was particularly brutal and killed all of its handlers, so he took it for his own. Now, Shan Bu, one of Lei Shen's most loyal servants, works to resurrect the dragon. It is time for us to strike against Shan Bu! Speak to me when you are ready to launch the assault!
