Torches and Tar

Torches and Tar is a quest for level 80 in Arathi Highlands. It is step 3 of 32 in the Rise of the Red Dawn storyline. It rewards 11,750 experience and money.

Description

We've been attacked before. But this time...

<Walker shudders.>

This was different.

They didn't want livestock, grain, or money. They took torches and some barrels of tar we use to fix our roofs.

I don't know what they're going to do with it, but... I can guess. They're going to burn something down.

You need to stop them before they do another homestead harm!
