There are some black metal references in this quest:
Gaahl is the former singer of the Norwegian black metal band Gorgoroth, currently in folk band Wardruna. Teloch is also a former member of Gorgoroth.
Besides that, (I'll need some comfirmation from a Swede) Malmo is a Swedish city, and I'm pretty sure Nord and Ost mean North and East, not sure about Sor, though.Anyways, love the Gorgoroth references! \m/

Sør is south in Norwegian, and Nord and Ost are, surprise, North and East. What amused me most was one attack Malmo casts, called 'Fury of the Storm', which is a Dragonforce song.
Worgen got that goofy top hat, goblins should have gotten a turtle shell helmet.

What to do
Description
Look, I think it's great that we're destroying all of these zombies, even though they're our friends and family. But don't you think we should be taking care of the pygmies that are creating them as well? At the three Oostan villages, Nord, Sor, and Ost, there are witch doctors: Gaahl, Malmo, and Teloch. Maybe you could take care of them? I don't want to be turned into a zombie!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Zombies vs. Super Booster Rocket Boots
Those zombies that got past us are nothing compared to the numbers waiting just through the pass. If we don't deal with them soon, the pygmy witch doctors are going to send all of them against the town, and even the cannons down there won't be able to handle that many!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Rockin' Powder
I'll give these pygmies one thing... they sure know how to party! But they're not so clever. I think I've discovered the source of their rockin' powers: Rockin' Powder! It turns out that this stuff, which turns them into world-class rockers, is also highly explosive. We must have it!
