Objectives Edit

Return the Head of the Broodlord Lashlayer to   Baristolth of the Shifting Sands at Cenarion Hold in Silithus.

•  [Head of the Broodlord Lashlayer]

Description Edit

There is no time to waste! A hero must be found! The task I give will require an army to complete but only one may rise from the throng of would be champions to take on the burden and responsibility of an ally of the Brood.

Within the lair of the Lord of Blackrock is a most cruel beast. The   Broodlord Lashlayer guards the Halls of Strife, blocking the way into Nefarian's inner sanctum. Slay the foul aberration and return his head to me. Do this and you may begin the next step of your journey.

It is the favor of the Brood of Nozdormu that you must earn.

Completion Edit

Could you be the first to earn favor among the Bronze Flight in a thousand years?
