Description

Naturally I've done some legwork already. I believe this Gorvold is buried at Shield Hill in the Howling Fjord.

Tahu can help locate the grave, and with a short ritual we should have our answers!

Meet us at Shield Hill in the Howling Fjord and we'll move on to the next step.

You'll find him in the very south part of Howling Fjord.

If you're looking for this portal, like me...it's in the upper room (portal in the center of Dalaran - to Aegwynn's Gallery) then run forward to the end of the hall.

If you are doing the Remix, don't go to the portal. Just click on the mount next to the NPC to get to where you need to go.
