Reference to William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. When Brutus goes to stab Julius Caesar with the rest of the senate during the assassination, Caesar says in astonishment "Et tu, Brute?" which literally translates from Latin as "And you, Brutus?", but can be thought to say "You too, Brutus?" in modern English.

What to do

StorylineTanaris, step 28 of 48
RewardsMeatface Pummeler, "Smart Bracers", Dagger of the Ides, 21g, 5,150 XP

Description

It's time to conclude this matter efficiently. From what we've determined, this mysterious object is in the possession of the "smart" brute described in the journal. We don't know exactly what's happened to this creature, obviously, so you should take caution. This... "Meatface" is hiding in the hills, near where these goblins bury their dead. Look for the graveyard and he should be just past it.

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.

  • TerrapinationTanaris · Level 15-30

    We need to obtain the object described in this journal, for certain. Extracting it from a chest would be a feasible matter, but the object itself sounds compromised, and unstable. Attempting to forcefully open the chest could be disastrous.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Un-CharteredTanaris · Level 15-30

    As I may have mentioned, I'm trying to get these Dunemaul ogres to join the Horde..and work for the Bilgewater Cartel as cheap local labor. To pull this off, we've gotta pay lip service to the actual initiation process and all that, or I'm going to catch flak later on.
