Description
The Highlands are host to ruins of some sort, secrets now being explored by an expedition team. What I know is that they've got their own wildlife and beasts lurking in that mountain marshland. How about you take a foray in there with some well-equipped friends, and we work a trade?
I don't care if they're hiding, I want their hides! Bring me the skins from four of the Thicket Raptors, I'll have a trade worked out for you to make it worth it.

Excavation Site: Wetlands: bosses, how to get in and every quest →
Read from the World of Warcraft: Forever beta: the quest's own text, level, objectives and rewards come from the quest cache the beta client writes, the item names, icons and qualities from the client's tables, and the two ends of the quest from the quest's own wording where it names them, with the title under the name where the creature cache knows it, or from the beta log, with the spot on the map, where the game has shown the hand-over. 145 quests have a page here so far.
