The frogloks of Rathe Mountains have decided that this is the season to reach out to the ogres and trolls of Innothule Swamp. They have sent the young froglok, Zok Glooria, to bring the feast to those bashers and bouncers now inhabiting the swamp. She may need a little assistance in making sure that the feasts are delivered without being feasted upon. She offers two new quests that have been set to be accepted by all character levels. Once the bouncers have been fed, Bouncer Mako offers a follow-up quest.
