Objectives[]

Talk to Kaltunk in the Valley of Trials.

Description[]

Blackrock - Eitrigg
Aggralan and I have decided to honor tradition. The Blessing of the Clan will take inspiration from the om'riggor.
You will track and kill a beast without your armor while acting as a Champion of the Blackrock, one worthy of testing your skills in battle.
You will hunt an unknown monster that has been stalking the residents of the Valley of Trials. The peons have taken to calling it Gor'krosh, the Long Knives.
Seek out Kaltunk and investigate. Once the beast is slain, take a trophy as proof of the deed, and paint your face with its blood, as proof for the Farseer.
Slay this enemy of the Orcs[sic], and bring honor to yourself and the Blackrock!
Bleeding Hollow - Jorin Deadeye
The Farseer and I have decided that the Blessing of the Clan will take inspiration from the om'riggor. We of the Bleeding Hollow still see value in the old traditions.
You will track and kill a beast without your armor while acting as our champion. But we have decided that this will be a particular beast that has become a menace, and is worthy of your skills.
You will hunt and slay the unknown monster that has been stalking the residents of the Valley of Trials. The peons have taken to calling it Gor'krosh, the Long Knives.

The Farseer and I have decided that the Blessing of the Clan will take inspiration from the om'riggor, as a way to honor our old traditions.
You will track and kill a beast without your armor while acting as a Champion of the Dragonmaw. But not just any beast. You will be sent on something that will actually be a challenge for such a seasoned <class>.

Don't die on me now. I was just growing to like you.
Frostwolf - Thrall

You should be more than a match for this challenge, but if not, it's been nice knowing you.
Warsong - Gorgonna
Farseer Aggralan I have decided that the Blessing of the Clan will take inspiration from the om'riggor. We still value a young Orc's ability to hunt and kill.
You will track and kill a beast without your armor while acting as a Champion of the Warsong. But it can't be just any beast, it must be challenge for one as mighty as you!
We have decided to send you on a hunt for an unknown monster that has been stalking the residents of the Valley of Trials. The peons have taken to calling it Gor'krosh, the Long Knives.
