Description
Well your name... we seem to be at a temporary dead end here. We know what we need - the Plates of Uldum - but we have no idea where they might be. We'll need to do quite a bit of research on this to come up with a solid plan of attack. I have a couple ideas where to start looking; I have high hopes that soon, we'll be asking you to head out and recover them.
The High Explorer needs to be informed on this, your name; no doubt, he also wants to thank you personally for once again aiding the League.
Completion
We're all in agreement then - the best plan of attack is putting this on hold until we can narrow down the areas where these plates might lie hidden. You've brought us this far your name, and I hope you will be the one to head back in to the field to unlock Uldum for us all!
Allow me to give you this honorarium in the meantime; this should cover any expenses you've encountered in assisting us, and a little something extra. Be sure to check back with us soon... Uldum beckons!
