On Guard in Stonetalon

A level 21 quest for the Alliance, from level 17.

Unchanged in Forever as far as is known: the text, objectives and rewards below are Classic’s.

Quest Objectives

Speak to Gaxim.

Description

The situation here in Stonetalon is obviously grave for a night elf and gnome to be working together.

The Venture Co. has devastated these lands and I've spent most of my time putting an end to the destruction.

Do not judge Gaxim prematurely; he understands the need for us to work together.

If you wish to aid us, then start by speaking to Gaxim.

I'm sorry I cannot send you back to Tara with good news yet. Perhaps soon.

Rewards

+25 reputation with Gnomeregan Exiles

When you hand it in

Treacherous...treacherous and dangerous, that's what this land is.

But I'm here to show the night elves that it's a little safer with the help of good ole engineering and a dash of magic.

See, swearing off magic completely won't help the night elves -- they need it. The world needs it. And with engineering and alchemy to boot, you can't go wrong. The possibilities are endless.
