This almost feels like a poke at Arathi Basin, where new players would frequently ask "where's Goldmine?" when someone would call incoming there.

Description
My goblin initiate has been gone for quite some time. His name is Goldmine. I sent him out to observe the local rock flayers southwest at the Quartzite Basin. Perhaps you would be willing to find him? When you do, please ask him to come back to the temple.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Explosive Bonding Compound
This guy's the son of the Earthen leader! He almost made it to the temple when he got ambushed by more rock flayers than I can count! We know that the Earthen Stonefather has the middle fragment of the World Pillar. Maybe if we were to heal his son, the Stonefather would give us the fragment?
