This quest is located in Tiragarde Sound in Splinterbark Roost subzone.
It is west of Boralus on a huge hill. Entrance to the hill is from the west side.

Objective of this quest is to kill Azurethos BfA world boss
Azurethos is also part of the Unbound Monstrosities

This world boss was actually fun. He doesn't hit hard and i was able to tank him as a retri without healer.
But, he has some fun mechanics, like throw away 30-50 yards and if you stand not far from the cliff... haha
He also has this ability to summon circles that will throw you up far in the sky and you will get fall damage

The worst part is that graveyard is way too far, so don't die.
I actually died just to check it in the video and you will get back in 2 mins if you die.

If you get knocked off the cliff & die, and you're still making the mile-long trek back to your corpse when the living members of the group finish him off, you will NOT get credit and you'll have to do the fight over again with another group. This quest can go die in a fire.
