Recover 5 Fire Hawk Hatchlings.

•  [Fire Hawk Hatchling] (5)

Description

Our scouts are bringing back reports of fire hawk hatchlings all over the peak

^{[23, 40]}

... their eggs must have hatched very recently. Better yet, it seems that they're extremely docile.

I know it may sound a strange and perhaps unsavory request, but if you were able to bring some of those hatchlings back to me, I might be able to train them to aid us in our war efforts.

Are you willing?

Progress

I can't make up my mind on how to regard these creatures. They act like much like other avians, but they are very obviously native to this fiery place.

I wonder why Ragnaros and his minions have not made attempts to rally them against us...

Completion

They look to have singed your gloves a bit, but I don't see any damage otherwise. Well done, <class>.

Come by again within the next few days to see how the training has gone.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 16 54
• 2  [Mark of the World Tree]
• 69400 XP
• 250 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal

Notes

• The Hatchlings can be found all over the Peak, usually in the various pools of lava.
