Description
your name, the gnolls are still out there. I can hear their baying as they hunt in the hills above Lakeshire. And one cry is louder than the rest - Yowler, their leader.
Kill Yowler and send his pack scattering! Bring me his paw as proof.
And be careful, this gnoll is their leader for a reason. He is no Mongrel...
In progress
Yowler is a dangerous creature, your name. If you're not ready for him, I understand.
Completion
Again, thank you for your help. The Stormwind army is so busy dealing with the orcs, they don't have the troops to protect Redridge from local threats like the gnolls.
