Nothing Ventured starts an optional chapter of the Azj-Kahet storyline. After freeing Monte Gazlowe in [78-80] The General's Consensus during the main campaign, he relocates to Mmarl, where he starts this quest.
Objectives
Learn what you can from the goblins in Mmarl.
- Speak to Mmarl Goblins (3)
- Speak to the Goblin Leader
Description
These niffen have been down here a long time--long enough to build a village and set up trade with the nerubians. Some of them are even able to trade in that big nerubian city!
The goblins, though? They're from the Venture Company. No wonder General Anub'azal was skeptical of me, if he's used to dealing with them.
What are they doing all the way down here? Let's try to learn what led them to this place.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 2 34
- 1,450 XP
Progress
Take a good look around for loose-lipped goblins.
Completion
At least they're willing to talk to you, even if they are rude. Maybe you can convince them working together is mutually beneficial.
Try something a little... transactional. They'll appreciate that.
Notes
On approach:
- Monte Gazlowe says: <name>, got a minute?
- Monte Gazlowe says: This place is crawling with Venture Company goblins.
Before accepting, Gazlowe has new gossip:
Look, I can't get anywhere with the Venture Company. Maybe you'll have a little more luck, eh?
What are you doing here in Azj-Kahet, again?
I came down here to Azj-Kahet with a group of Pathfinders and a contingent of Horde defenders. We were intending to use a tunnel we found against the nerubians. Smart, huh? Not so much.
We got down here, they ambushed us, and we were all dragged to Siegehold. Fortunately, I was hidden inside my mech, so they didn't realize I was there--or so I thought.
Anyway, I saw a bunch of people from Dalaran. Looks like Siegehold is where they haul all their prisoners before they get moved to the main city.
When I check back in with everyone, I know they're gonna have questions about these goblins down here. I'm gonna need some answers first.
On accept:
- Monte Gazlowe says: I'm gonna go listen around. They won't talk to me, but maybe I can catch them chatting with each other. Meet me at the inn when you're done.
Goblins are marked on the minimap.
Sammy Fizzvolt
I placed a bet. I'm feelin' good about it.
(Quest) What can you tell me about the goblins here?
- Sammy Fizzvolt says: I bet Thad that we'd die in the tunnels when we dug our way into Azj-Kahet. That's the only bet I'm glad I lost!
Murfie
You look like you gotta story to tell, stranger. Trust me, whatever you throw down, I guarantee I've heard worse.
So go on. Pony up to the bar and tell me all about it.
(Quest) What can you tell me about the goblins here?
- Murfie says: We get the occasional niffen, but most of my customers are Venture Company. Every day it's another story about a bad boss--Jenni Boombuckle's a name I hear a lot. But hey, at least they keep Corby in business!
Grigg
I keep the pool to a reasonable level of filthy.
(Quest) What can you tell me about the goblins here?
- Grigg says: Pool Boys LLC is really just a subsidiary of the Venture Company. Everybody here toes the line, whether they admit it or not.
After speaking with all three, head to the inn:
- Rhubarn says: Oh hey, Jenni, look! Some newcomers! Hullo there!
- Jenni Boombuckle says: Don't change the subject, Rhubarn! It's rude.
- Rhubarn says: Ruder to ignore a new friend, isn't it?
Rhubarn
I don't want to be rude, but these goblins are tryin' my last whisker of patience!
Jenni Boombuckle
I'm tired of troubleshootin' all these problems...
(Quest) Are you in charge here?
- Jenni Boombuckle says: Yeah, I'm the boss around here. Why, you got a problem? Too bad. I don't care.
