RewardsElectrostatic Legguards, Gan'zulah's Headchopper, Discarded Troll Leggings, 21g, 5,150 XP

Description

<The skull speaks once more.> My soul is ready, but my body is not. The Bloodscalps desecrated my old body long ago. The horrors that they inflicted upon me... my spirit watched on while they tore my body apart and, and... I can't go on. Their chief, Gan'zulah, presided over the gruesome acts. In fact, if memory serves, he was a strong, powerful troll... about the same size as I was. What a fine coincidence. You know what to do, {race}. Make it quick.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Nose for This Sort of ThingNorthern Stranglethorn · Level 10-30

    <The skull speaks to you.> I live? No, I do not... but I can. That raptor you have is wise to have found my skull among what must have been so many. In life, I was strong, powerful, a lord among trolls. With your help, I can be a lord once more.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Population Con-TrollNorthern Stranglethorn · Level 10-30

    I understand you may be headed to Zul'Kunda soon. While you are there, I have a small task for you. The trolls are outgrowing Stranglethorn. The Bloodscalp in the West, the Skullsplitters in the East... they pour out of their ruins and into the jungle, disrupting the natural balance of the region.
