This quest does not track well.

The basilisk meat is around "The Forge of Supplication".

Once you obtain 5 pieces ... use the Fiery Leash *anywhere*
This will summon a large dog next to you. Target the dog and right-click your 5 pieces of meat from your inventory.

115/115 Your the man!

Description

Hmmmphh.... it seems they'll let anyone in these days. Very well. You doubtlessly became acquainted with Smolderos in the proving grounds. Well, I've been entrusted with the care of one of his pups. Quite the little terror -- if he grows up to be anything like his father he shall serve our cause well. Collect meat from the basilisks around the area and feed them to him.

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.

    You might think you're ready to receive the knowledge we're to impart on you. But you are not. Think of your mind as a box inside a series of other boxes. Each step of our training will open one of those boxes, until you are ready to achieve direct communion with the elements.

  • A Champion's CollarMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    This little guy is a true menace now, isn't he? We're going to have to give him a nice spiked collar if he's going to be a fighting pup. The basilisk matriarch has made her lair off of the road to Winterspring. Bring me her spiked hide and we'll fashion a collar for our little killer here.
