Objectives
Gather an Opalescent Blue Crab Shell and 8 Stolen Pandaren Spices.
Description
Many have perished here. We will need to honor them properly, which means gathering the makings of incense of life.
It doesn't just smell nice - it has restorative properties, and can even help plants grow. Maybe I can get a whiff of the ingredients to get me back on my feet.
The materials can be found on creatures around here - except for the spices, which were stolen by the mercenaries who pillaged the village.
Rewards
You will receive: 10 20
Progress
Are those the ingredients for Incense of Life I smell on you? Or... perhaps you haven't bathed recently.
Completion
Beautiful, beautiful. Better to not need to bury our friends, but if we must, it is good they will have a fitting ceremony.
Gains
- 129000 XP

At 50% health:
- Ripflesh casts Smoke Bomb, knocking all players in the air, then disappears.
- Captain Ripflesh yells: Ha! Let's see if you can figure this out!
- Captain Ripflesh yells: Mirror... IMAGE!
- Ripflesh is hiding in one of the four barrels, and Gnoll Decoys are sitting on the other three.
Break one of the decoys:
- Captain Ripflesh yells: Ha! Fooled you!
Focus on him and finish him off:
- How did you... figure... it out...
He drops the 
[Crumpled Bill of Sale]:
Head to the southwest to find waterfalls, with Lightfooted Snapclaws striding the water. Polished stones can be found underneath the waterfalls—several of which can be found uphill near the village.
