Objectives

Find Johnny Awesome at the Sludge Fields in Hillsbrad Foothills.

Description

It was only yesterday that I sent him out to investigate the farm directly east of here, but it feels like an eternity has passed!

True perfection. The way his blond locks framed his perfect blood elf face... Such strength. I didn't want to send him away, but he insisted! How could I refuse him?

Alas, poor Johnny Awesome has not returned! I fear the worst, <name>. Find him!

Completion

<Johnny is sobbing loudly.>

Tw... Twinkles!!!! Th... It killed her!

<Johnny continues to cry>

Notes

When entering the building:

Master Apothecary Lydon says: YOU THERE! Yes, you, <class>! I have been captured against my will and imprisoned illegaly^[sic] by Warden Stillwater. Get me out of this cage and I will explain everything.

The subject of this section has been removed from World of Warcraft.

Prior to Shadowlands, this quest was named Little Girl Lost and featured Stillwater humorously mistaking Johnny Awesome for a woman. The original quest description read:

It was only yesterday that I sent her out to investigate the farm directly east of here, but it feels like an eternity has passed!

I knew it was true love the minute I saw her. Her lovely blonde locks and the way they framed her perfect blood elf face... She melted my shriveled heart. I didn't want to send her out, but she was so demanding! I had to give her what she asked for! Who could refuse such a vision?

Alas, poor Jenny Awesome has not returned! I fear the worst, <name>. Find her!

The last completion sentence was:

<Johnny continues to cry. Little snot bubbles form in his nostrils.>
