Description
Now that we've done a service for the gnomes, it's time to do the goblins a favor!
I hear that the goblin racer pilot, Nazz Steamboil, didn't always use that name. I wonder why he changed it. I wonder if it's a secret, and... I wonder if he values that secret.
If anyone knows the truth, then it's Krazek of Booty Bay, on the southern tip of Stranglethorn. Speak with Krazek and ask him about our goblin pilot.
If you can get useful information from him, then we might just turn a profit from it.
Completion
You want to know about Nazz Steamboil? He's a racer pilot out in the Shimmering Flats, isn't he?
Yeah, I might be able to find something out about him... but it won't be easy. Or fast.
Or cheap.
