You see,, I'm a member of the Enlightened Assembly of Arcanology, Alchemy and Engineering Sciences, and it's my goal... nay, my DUTY! to show the night elves that a blend of magic, mixtures, and mechanisms can help save their forests.

But it's a hard fought war, and the goblins reproduce like rabbits it seems. I haven't even had time to build my newest inventions!

I need some time to plan and organize. But to do that, I need your help keeping the goblins at bay in Windshear Crag to the east...

Upon completion of this quest you will gain:

• 1650 XP (or at level 70)
• 250 reputation with Gnomeregan Exiles

Thanks so much for your help,. You're actually back just in time.

I think I've got a perfect plan... explosives. No, that's not the plan, but it's part of the plan.

See, I've been using high explosives—don't worry, they're not as dangerous as everyone thinks—to scare the goblins back a bit. I can herd 'em pretty good with a few key detonations along the mountains' edges, but I've been low on supplies now for a few days...
