Navarrogg is by the northwest entrance to Thunder Totem.
(Only reason I posted is cuz the quest says speak with Mayla Highmountain at first. Once u come close to Navarrogg it updates to "speak with him.")
That was the longest quest series I remember doing... wow

Where to go

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.

With the threat to my people quelled, I believe it is time to introduce you to my kin. Meet me at Stonedark Grotto, and you will see where we live.
After this quest
Taken from a quest that requires this one.
- Battle of Snowblind Mesa
Your timing is fortunate. Our forces at Snowblind Mesa report seeing the Underking above ground. What is more, he is lightly guarded, and has the hammer with him. Thanks to your efforts, we can meet them in battle. Meet us at Snowblind Mesa and let us take the fight to Dargrul together.
