Spirit of the Wind

Bring Mangletooth 10 blood shards and I will bless you with great speed. You will run with zhevra and the wind will be jealous of you.

It will not last long, but it should be enough to help you travel throughout the Barrens.

ONLY AVAILABLE FOR THE HORDE!
Doesn't stack up with shaman's Ghost Wolf form, druid's Feral swiftness talent, nor does it stack with hunter's Aspect of the Cheetah and Aspect of the Pack, or a mount.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The speed bonus is +30 %. Tested.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
When flying it only gives the visual effect, but not the speed bonus, as shown here.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The buff can be bought from Mangletooth in The Barrens for 10 Blood Shards.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please also note that the quest does not award you with reputation or exp. Only the buff.

I believe this gives a 30% speed boost.

Note that this doesn't stack with the druid feral talent Feral Swiftness. There was no change from having this buff in cat form to not having the buff. It grants approximately the same speed, as I was running at about the same speed in regular form as I was in cat.

When I just tried this, I got increased speed for 4 minutes. This is really for getting you south to the tough areas before your buffs time off. Make sure you collect this one last.

Had the shards taking up space, so I decided to test this out. Appears to be same speed increase as Aspect of the Cheetah (30%), but doesn't stack with AotC. I can only assume it doesn't stack with Ghost Wolf and Travel Form either. Not sure if it stacks with Swiftness pots though. It lasts for 5min, instead of 4min mentioned below.

This is a repeatable quest from the gnoll that is locked in the cage in Camp Taurajo. You turn in 10 Blood Shards which you can loot from the Quillbores in the area.

This is a very useful quest to keep getting, because extra run speed is always good when you are trying to level faster.

He's not taking the shards when he gives the buff. Not that I mind, but he did so in the past.
Edit: This might be because I had Aspect of the Cheetah. This buff still replaced Aspect of the Cheetah though
