TheWoWDBThe map is slightly deceiving, it's not located near the entrance, it is further down into the cave, find a path to head down deeper into the cave, the item is located at the bottom.

A World of Warcraft quest in Gorgrond. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.

Additionally, if you have completed the associated missions, wait a moment and Hansel Heavyhand will come down into the cave, very close to where you pick up the Will of the Genesaur. You can then hand in and pick up the quest Iyu Iyu.
Entrance to the cave is at about 36,25 and the entrance to the lower level is at 53,77. Easiest way to see is to check out your map. Wish I'd looked sooner as I ran past the lower cave entry about 5 times!

What to do
Description
When the goren attacked we threw everything we had at them but they just kept comin'. So some of the lads went and stole a fancy artifact from the botani. Problem was we couldn't get it to work. Now the artifact is sitting at the bottom of the bastion. To get to it you got to go all the way to the back of the tunnels past all them goren and find the wee tunnel that takes you farther underground. If you retrieve it, it is yours.
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Just In Case
When we set up shop the first thing we built was the cannon. Seemed like a good place fer it. We started buildin' the base up around it when them chompin' acid spittin' varmints came crawlin' out of the ground. The upside though is the cannon is built, just not loaded.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Iyu
Did ya hear that? Sounds like that genesaur wants its 'will' back. I told ya this place is nuthin' but bad luck. I'll git that shot ya gave me loaded properly and see if I can't weaken that thing up. You better get up there and deal with it though...
