You did it, lad! You beat that damned gronn and sent Cho'gall packing into the Twilight Bastion.
Don't you worry. With your help and that of your friends, we'll get in there and we'll kill Cho'gall once and for all!
On accept: Hop back on a flying mount and get to the altar. Skullcrusher is a boss-level gronn with 11.6 million health, being tanked by Kurdran, with Cassius healing and Shaw doing some DPS and backup tanking due to the encounter mechanics. Skullcrusher has the following abilities: Start attacking normally. However, players and the hero units are not getting anywhere fast, so at 85%: There are five altars on the outside of the circle, rotating every few seconds in their elemental affiliation. Interact with them to gain 60-second duration buffs: Skullcrusher starts using his one-hit KO ability now, so pay attention and revive the units that have been knocked out or the fight will go south rather quickly. Stay out of range of the shadow altar!

The name of the quest, as well as the rewards themselves are obvious references to Jonathan Coulton's song "Skullcrusher Mountain"
