TheWoWDB"Zedd's Dead" is a Pulp Fiction reference actually... and "prognosis negative" is a fairly common medical term. The Human League is an 80's New Wave band, like zaza said. As much of a Seinfeld fan as I am, I think yours is a reference about nothing. =)

Any references to The Human League (the band) in this quest chain - other than the name of this quest?

Description
We were on the brink of an archaeological breakthrough when those monsters attacked! Sadly, I was the only one to make it back to Valgarde. Now I don't know if my crew is dead or alive, but the artifacts we uncovered on that dig must be found! If you're heading into Wyrmskull Village, will you keep an eye out for my team? If there's any hope of recovering that information, we must pursue it! Search for Pulroy first. He was the last one I saw before I made my escape.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Into the World of Spirits
While the Explorers' League may discern bits and pieces of the past through their archaeological findings and the Vice Admiral might extract some knowledge of the present through brute force, the truth lies with the spirits. With the proper reagents I am able to see into the spirit world.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Path to Payback
Two weeks ago our chief engineer got his hands on a vrykul harpoon gun - the same type of gun that the vrykul use to take down our ships. By studying that gun he managed to put together a comprehensive operation manual. Unfortunately he was abducted and taken north of here to Wyrmskull Village.
