Just if anyone is interested in what these NPCs say when you give them the word of Zul:

Dockmaster Cobo:

Zul's visions, bah! Did he tell you about de time he predicted Zandalar would sink beneath the waves?


He was wrong. Oh dere was damage, but Zul fled, with our fleet, and started a few wars. Those of us who stayed, endured. We rebuilt. Because DAT is what it means to be Zandalari.

Nokali the Scarred:

So de time has come at last. I have been saving dis messenger beast since de Thunder King rose. It would seem its day has finally arrived.

Doomsayer Volkini doesn't say anything when you give her the message, but she just disappears! But, before you give her the message, she yells:

Zul forsaw the Cataclysm, and we did nothing. We watched as our king banished him. We watched as Zul took our brothers and sisters into exile with him. And we saw de destruction dat came with the Cataclysm!

This quest is glitched. As you hand the word over to Volkini, she just disappears.

In the Beta, she would run away into the distance and shout: "The time has come! I must tell the others. Those still faithful to him must know."

So if anyone wonders why she just disappears into thin air, now you know what's supposed to happen.

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.

    Where are de guards? Princess Talanji has convinced King Rastakhan to permit outsiders in our port. For de first time in centuries, we have allowed non-trolls to set foot on our shores and peddle their wares. And now trolls of lesser tribes seem to think dey can take advantage of these merchants?

  • DeterrentZuldazar · Level 10-60

    General Jakra'zet had orders to ensure dis place had protection. Guard protection. I see none of dat. Jakra'zet is a stubborn general, and one I have had my eye on for a while now. Regardless, we must remind dese lesser tribes who rules dis city with a message dey will understand.
