'''Erunak Stonespeaker''' is a powerful [[Broken]] [[shaman]] [[quest giver]] allied with the [[Earthen Ring]]. He is assigned to aid the [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]] in [[Vashj'ir]] against the [[naga]] allied with [[Deathwing]] and the [[Old Gods' forces]].

He is found in ''[[The Briny Cutter]]''{{coords|45.2|23.4|Kelp'thar Forest}} and ''[[The Immortal Coil]]''{{coords|38.8|31.7|Kelp'thar Forest}} of [[Kelp'thar Forest]]. He can later be found at [[Shallow's End]], the [[Deepmist Grotto]] and next to the coil of rope for [[The Abyssal Ride]] in Kelp'thar Forest. In the [[Shimmering Expanse]], Erunak makes an appearance inside [[Nespirah]] for the quest [[Nespirah]]. When he is captured by [[Ozumat]] in [[Defending the Rift]], he is controlled by and later freed from [[Mindbender Ghur'sha]] by [[Adventurer|adventurers]].

==History==
===Elemental Unrest===
{{wotlk-section}}
As part of the [[Elemental Unrest]] he was also in [[Stormwind]]'s [[Trade District]].

===Cataclysm===
{{cata-section}}
Erunak appears after [[adventurer]]s were about to be captured by the naga, where he used a [[Conch Shell]] to bring them to safety and would later assist the Horde and Alliance against the naga and other forces that were stationed at [[Promontory Point]] in the [[Abyssal Depths]].

Erunak would later participate in the Battle for the Abyssal Breach during [[Defending the Rift]]. However upon the battle's conclusion Erunak would be abducted and spirited away to the [[Throne of Tides]]. Once at the Throne he would be mind-controlled by [[Mindbender Ghur'sha]] until [[Rescue the Earthspeaker!|his rescue]] with the death of Ghur'sha. While grateful to be freed he is unable to further assists his rescuers as he needs time to recuperate.

===Legion===
{{Legion-section}}
Erunak returns to the Throne of the Tides with a shaman [[adventurer|hero]] in search of [[Sharas'dal, Scepter of Tides]] after his friend [[Wavespeaker Adelee]] went missing there while looking for it. The naga, still within the Throne of the Tides, were torturing a [[sea giant]] named [[Grash]] which was promptly freed, who informed them that a naga named [[Lady Zithreen]] is using the Caduceus of Azshara to control the sea giants, [[makrura]], and other residents of the seas. Erunak demands to know from Zithreen what [[Queen Azshara|Azshara's]] plans were for the [[Abyssal Maw]] during the events in Vashj'ir, but Zithreen does not tell him and Grash kills her.

I shall find my way out when strength returns to me.
