[edit] Quest Information
| “ | You say, 'Hail, Donart Rithkin'
Donart Rithkin says 'Hrm. What? What... you want something? I don't have [time] to help you.' You say, 'time?' Donart Rithkin says 'Yes. I am busy. Are you one of those [adventurers] out for glory, or just after coin for your pockets? If the latter, don't even bother me.' You say, 'adventurers' Donart Rithkin says 'Well, maybe you can be of some use. There are various [missions] that you can try and complete for me, if you have the stones. There is a need to [evaluate] Bloodmoon Keep, sabotage the food stores of their [worgs] and [spiders], and try and have contact with the [slaves] or the [spirits] in Bloodmoon Keep.' You say, 'missions' Donart Rithkin says 'That is the spirit. Come back to me when you have completed the mission.' | ” |

At this point you are presented with a list of several tasks available.
You have been assigned the task 'What do the Worgs Eat?'
[edit] Task Description
The orcs in Bloodmoon use worgs as mounts rather than horses. Worgs make superior war mounts as they are much more vicious than even the best trained horse. Go into Bloodmoon and kill their mounts. While you are there, collect a sample of the food and poison the rest. The food sample will be used to make sure that the poison continues to be effective. You will only need to poison six of their food stores. Additionally kill at least a few of their tenders.
[edit] Task Objectives
All stages except the final one are available immediately upon accepting this task. You are also given Worg Food Poison which is inventory clickable and has a 5 second cast time which you will use for all the "poison the food..." task updates
Note: This can be done solo by a select few classes (notably Bards), otherwise it is advised that you take a group that can kill fast with little downtime.
All task updates will come from the "worg wing" which is the eastmost door upon zoning into Bloodmoon Keep. The following map will help:
[edit] Gather a sample of the worg food from between first and second north stall
In the first room you come to in the worg wing, turn left (north) and you will see a small open crate. This is position 1 on the map above, simply left click this to collect Prepared Worg Food. This is also the crate you'll have to poison for the fourth step (between the first and second north stalls) so while you're here, go ahead and poison the crate.
[edit] Poison the food to the north of the entrance to the worg pens
This is spot 2 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Poison the food to the south of the entrance to the worg pens
This is spot 3 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Poison the food between first and second north stall
This is spot 1 on the map, the same spot where you collected the food.
[edit] Poison the food to the north side in back of the first room
This is spot 4 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Poison the food to the south side in back of the first room
This is spot 5 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Poison the food to the south in the second room
This is spot 7 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Poison the food to the north in the second room, deep in the corner
This is spot 6 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
NOTE: This corner is fairly safe (one roamer) if you need to move your group into the second room in order to clear it.
[edit] Poison the food near the south stalls in the second room
This is spot 8 on the map, click the poison near some barrels near the stalls.
[edit] Poison the food to the east in the second room
This is spot 9 on the map, click the poison near some barrels along the wall.
[edit] Kill 15 Worgs
Any worg in the zone will count for this task. Worgs run faster than all orcs, so it is slightly easier to pull them out of the crowd. They do not summon, the do run when low health. You'll usually find 2-3 in each stall.
[edit] Kill 10 Bloodmoon Wolfcallers
These type of orcs roam the worg pens, though not in great numbers and you may need to wait for repops. Like the worgs, these do not summon, but they do run at low health.
[edit] Report your progress to Donart Rithkin
