Description
As Naralex descended deeper into his nightmare, a strange breed of beasts arose from beneath the Barrens into the Wailing Caverns.
These deviate creatures have strange, otherworldly properties. While evil in nature, it is my opinion that some good can come from their existence here in Kalimdor. I believe their hides will be of particular use in the ways of leatherworking.
If you feel up to the task, venture into the caves below and retrieve some deviate hides.
In progress
I am very interested in examining the hides from the deviate creatures who have infested these caves. Have you had any luck in collecting some, your class?
Completion
Your efforts shall not go unnoticed in gathering these hides, your name.
Thank you for your dedication.
