TheWoWDBWhen your Warband reaches Renown Rank 9 with [faction=2658], you'll get access to the [storyline=5941] storyline, starting at [npc=238016] in [zone=15781]:
Day 1 :Day 2 :Win-Win Situation (small trading game to unlock required dialogue options to finish the quest, for this step, [npc=236265] has two extra quest item cookies in his stock, [item=242667] and [item=242708])Day 4 :
/way #2472 57.6 58.1 Ba'eth
/way #2472 46.9 36.8 Xy'dax
/way #2472 43.3 37.0 Ba'kerei
/way #2472 48.5 41.4 Xy'Zin and Griftah
Because they prevented us from continuing this storyline for quite a while during testing, it's uncertain whether they will spread these quests over more days (they flag a hidden tracking quest [quest=90725] to stop us from continuing back to back like they did to stagger the Whelp Daycare storyline in Dragonflight), or we'll get the mount after 4 days of completing the listed quests as seen on PTR. (There's no catch-up, that tracking quest will continue to do its job. When you pause X days, you'll finish X days later.)

Was able to do the first 2 days just fine after hitting Renown 9. Standing at Ba'eth right now and can't pick up the day 3 quest. Could potentially be on a 24 hour internal lock before the next is available? I did pick up day 2 later last night.

What to do
Description
We may have gotten off on the wrong foot, but there's something you should know. That old slateback you used to haul all those imports? I thought it was just another worn-out nag, but it turns out it was the real treasure all along. A rare bluecephalus, worth a fortune! You might want to figure out where it went, and why Ba'eth isn't exactly rushing to share the profits!
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Win-Win Situation
Not everything you recovered yesterday was mine, but let's be honest--we're going to keep it anyway! Xy'daz has been ripping people off for years. It's his turn to take a loss! Now, this can work in both our favors. You sell off half of the leftover goods for me, and I'll let you keep the rest!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Meat My Business
Since I am helping you, I'm sure you won't mind returning the favor. I have a constant need for fresh, untainted meat, which is quite hard to come by. The Oasis is off limits, but the wildlife roaming these sands? I've got a list of what I need.
The storyline at a glance
Ba'eth's Request has 6 steps, from Stealing What is Ours to A Blue for You.
