Resting in Pieces

Bring Alaric's Head to his grave.
A Talking Head
Provided Item:
A Talking Head

Description

You don't look like a rot hide. Good. I had lost hope...

My name is Alaric, and I was once Thule's head servant and bodyguard. He used his magic to "protect" me from the Plague of Undeath, but instead his spell gave me an unlife from which I cannot escape. And after creating the cursed rot hide gnolls, Thule beheaded me... and gave my head to the gnolls as a plaything!

Please, take me to my body. I believe the gnolls buried it here in Fenris Keep, near the stable, in an unmarked grave.

There's a rare spawn 22 elite gnoll on the castle grounds. I've only seen him once.

If you want another way in (maybe a little easier), there's an opening in the wall at the back of the castle. There are a couple of vile fins, then you're able to sneak in the back of the castle.

The grave is inside the castle keep. If you enter through the main entrance, bear right, between the keep and the inn-like building, and bear right and you should see the grave back there. I think the grave has boots sticking out of it.

Good luck.

Drops from Rot Hide Gnolls, got mine while working on this quest: https://classicdb.ch/?quest=443

Grave is located at 67,24 just east of the keep in front of the stables. It's marked as shallow grave and has boots sticking out of it.

I don't have the chords but it's quite easy. Just swim to the Fenris Isle and walk into the big castle. Kill one by one, or run through it if you prefer to die ^^ Follow the eastern wall and you will get to 3 small houses. To the east of them, you'll see this grave:

Simply leftclick on the grave and you will complete the quest.

I always wondered what happened to that 80's band The Talking Heads, I see that at least one of them has been hanging out in WoW.

As you go in on the right side there is a building straight ahead to the right of the tower and one on your right.

The grave is right around the corner in the middle of the walk by the building on your right.

Just make sure to clear and keep up with the respawn rate.

The next portion of the quest asks you to take his remains in the keep in an alcove behind a dusty shelf. It is one the third floor and has to be reached from the NW tower on the second floor (pretty much all keeps in the game have same layout). Be careful of the adds and named level 24 elite (Thule) up there.

Click on the head 1st to accept quest, the "?" will help you find the grave.

I didn't think of it and was having a hard time finding the mound-of-dirt-with-two-feet-sticking-out, cause it matched the color of everything else.

Where in Silverpine Forest do i find his head to start the quest?

Do you have to go inside that massive castle thingy that is heavily guarded by razormanes to find the grave?&nbsp I thought you only had to go in there if you were after the elite quest to kill Arugal.

Once you enter the castle, there is a mob of 4, kill them all and head to right side- go straight until you see a "shallow grave".&nbsp After the first mob, others you can kill one on one.

You get the head BEFORE you go inside the castle keep to return the head to the shallow grave and its owner.

The website says Caretaker Alaric in arathi highlands starts quest but not correct since does nothing. Don't waste a flight getting there. The quest starts with a talking head dropped from random mob drops around fenris keep in silverpine as everyone said.

I'm on my second Horde toon, this is the first time I see it. Both times in Fenris Isle were in the context of the Rot Hide Ichor quest. So 1 in 50? May be...
