Quest text

Ah, nothing like the smell of fresh blood in the foothills!

Now we'll mix in a touch of this and a little of that and let the real fun begin! What I have created with this blood, I like to call an Elixir of Pain. If my calculations are correct this concoction could be the start of something very beautiful for Lady Sylvanas. But what we need is a test.

Take this elixir out to the northern farm in Hillsbrad Fields to the southwest. Let's see how Farmer Ray's little dog Stanley likes this "treat."

Progress

Woof?

Completion

You pour some of the elixir into your hand and hold it before Stanley's mouth.
