Notes:

Say "ready" to enter the instance.

Algera wants you to go investigate the rumors of this "Destroyer" that the gnolls have been talking about. Start by heading southwest towards the Pellucid Grotto zoneline to find Shorf the Shaman. Chat with him, and he tells you to talk with Zakarf the Assassin who is standing right beside him. Do so and he attacks, hits for under 6k, nothing special. He is snareable and runs at low health.

With Zakarf dispatched we follow his clue to the watery nook, southeastern area of the zone where you find Grothroth. When you hail him he and his cohorts attack. You'll want some cc or a fd puller for this to avoid getting swarmed over. Grothroth hits for just under 8k, rampage, flurry, enrage, while the other gnolls in the area top out around 5k. They all seem to run at low health when down to one in camp. Once everything is dead you can loot up the badges off the priests.

Head back to the central area to find Garrhuff. Hand him the 3 badges and med up. When you hail him you are beset by a wave of ambushers, 2 gutpiercers, 2 ambushers, and Reurhof Gnawbones. Reurhof hits for around 7500, rampages, and summons, gutpiercers and reavers hit around 7k and don't summon. All are rootable and mezable, so bring some sort of cc. Once those 5 are dead the next wave spawns, 2 gutpiercers, 2 ambushers, and Vark Scrapseater. Vark hits 7500, rampages and summons.

When both waves are dead, head a bit west to find Urk'Bark Pinchpaw. Hail him to wake him up, then kill him. He hits around 8500, rampages and summons. The task locks when it dies. Once he is dead hail Algera to finish the mission. Say "leave" and she will port you out of the instance.
