From what I can gather, the quilboar are performing a necromantic ritual on one of the expedition members.

Their chief is Geolord Grek'og. He is the one who seeks to drain the life from our friend.

Slay Grek'og and save the captive member of the expedition. He may know where the others were taken.

• 15
• 200 XP

Completion

Thanks for saving my life! They said this would be a run of the mill, uneventful expedition.

It definitely was NOT! And I couldn't be happier!

Notes

Huxworth offers multiple quests, so pick them both up:

Captain Garrick says: Let's go. Those monsters have my son.

Austin Huxworth says: Henry? I didn't see him... but I'm sure he's still alive.

Captain Garrick says: I know. I raised him to overcome any challenge.

Garrick and Huxworth run to the north before disappearing.

The quilboar are the first hostile enemies that players encounter. Unlike the murlocs and other wildlife, the quilboar will not wait for the player to start combat and will aggro should players get too close!

Keep an eye out for the rare Ogre Overseer, who will be marked on the minimap with a star. He drops the  [Battered Cloak].

Find Geolord Grek'og further in the briarpatch, holding Lindie Springstock with some spell:

Geolord Grek'og says: Intruders! You will be our next sacrifice!

Lindie Springstock says: Help! I'm too brilliant to die!

Defeat Grek'og:

Lindie Springstock says: I knew the Alliance would rescue us! Let's get out of here!

Springstock runs uphill to the northwest.

On approach:

Lindie Springstock says: You're Captain Garrick! Henry's mother! He always said you'd come for us!

Captain Garrick says: Well, he was right. Now, where's the rest of the expedition?

Lindie Springstock says: I'm not sure, but I know how we can find out.

You sure got some guts! I respect that. I joined this expedition thinkin' it'd be a quick and easy way to make a little profit.

But now with all this necromancy and crazy ogres... maybe I can make a LOT of profit!

Notes

Both quests accepted

Warlord Breka and Mithdran stand up.

Warlord Breka Grimaxe says: We move, now. Those monsters have my daughter.

Mithdran Dawntracker says: Shuja? I saw no sign of her. Perhaps she evaded capture.

Warlord Breka Grimaxe says: One can hope. She rarely acts with such caution.

Warlord Breka runs into the Quilboar Briarpatch and Mithdran follows.

Geolord Grek'og

Geolord Grek'og is holding Cork Fizzlepop in the air with dark magic. On aggro:

Geolord Grek'og says: Intruders! You will be our next sacrifice!

Cork Fizzlepop says: Oh you're in for it now, pal!

With Grek'og's death, Cork drops to the ground and lands on his feet.

Cork Fizzlepop says: And that's why I always bet on the Horde! Let's scram!

Cork runs north toward the Darkmaul Plains.

Approaching the turn-in point

Cork Fizzlepop says: You must be Warlord Breka! Shuja's mother! She always said you'd save our hides.

Warlord Breka Grimaxe says: We're not safe just yet. Where are the others?

Cork Fizzlepop says: No idea... but I've got a way to find out!
