Objectives

Kill 6 Hecklefang Scavengers.

Description

Not everyone who fled Taurajo was able to make it to Una'fe, <name>. Some died of wounds along the way. Others were jumped by opportunistic quilboar.

I'll take care of the grim task of finding and gathering the bodies. But there is something you can do for me.

Hecklefang scavengers prowl the lands south of here and are savaging the corpses, tearing at their bowels and dragging away the limbs of the dead. Please, thin their numbers so that I can perform the proper funerary rites.

Reward

You will receive: 30

Progress

Thank you for helping me with this grim business, <name>.

Completion

So it is done.

Normally these scavengers are part of the Earthmother's cycle of life. But on the heels of the devastation wracked by both the Alliance and the cataclysm, their numbers grow overwhelming. It is good to thin them out.
