Ah it's time. Kill their leader. Salt his bones, take his head, and laugh as his tribe crumbles! Sharpscale's last moments are upon him, and he doesn't even realize it yet. Stupid fish-face.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
