TheWoWDBThe original quest is obsolete, but this quest can still be completed as of patch 7.0.3. I had to wait for a while until the mob respawned though, and it took quite some time.

Description
Hey, {name}. Sorry to be so short with ye earlier... and no, that ain't a pun. I figured out where Trelane's first item ended up: Kor'gresh has it in Boulderfist Hall. An' by the way he was throwing down blasts of ice at his kin to keep them in line, he must be close to figurin' out how to use all of its powers. Boulderfist Hall's south of here an' then east of Thandol Span. Find the ogre an' get back that wand. While you're gone, I'll figure out what we're gonna do about Stromgarde.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Worth Its Weight in Gold
Archmage Malin sent me here to collect reagents for him. I was at a loss as to how I was going to collect the items, but now that you're here, I think my problem's solved. I need Witherbark tusks and Witherbark medicine pouches. Could you find those for me?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Trelane's Defenses
All rested? Here's our next step: there're ogres all around the Tower of Arathor in Stromgarde. We're gonna need to ward you against the tower's defenses. To do that, we're gonna need some gems the Boulderfist shaman have taken a liking to.
