Description

Now that you can throw a torch, let's see if you can catch one!

My 2 Cents:
Don't Try This in Org! - I tried several times to complete this in ORG. but couldn't get it done, finished on first try in Thunder Bluff just by watching the shadow. Hope that helps!

Don't try this quest in Orgrimmar, the shadow desappears .
Try TB, it's way easier.
