The Master nods his heavy horned head. "I have two apprentices that need to step out on their own. They are good Tauren, work well with the Kodo, but they need to be out from under my shadow. I shall send them to you." He folds his hands together. "However I want something in return."

There is always a catch.

"To the southwest in the Stonetalon Mountains is small valley where the Kodo go to die. It is a graveyard most holy to both the Kodo and the Tauren. The spirits of the Kodo linger there and from time to time return to the cycle of life by reincarnating into a baby. Recently however a flock of Harpies has defiled the Kodo Graveyard. They pick over the bones and bodies of the dead, they disturb the Kodo spirits, and have even corrupted some to the point that they have become violent. I would ask you to go to the Graveyard, kill these vile Harpies, and find a way to put the angry spirits to rest. Do this and I shall send my apprentices to Bael Modan with my best Bull and two of my best Cows."

New Side Quest: Master Taruk Dustsrider has asked you to go to the Kodo Graveyard near Camp Taurajo and clear out the Harpies that have infested it. Also you must put to rest any angry Kodo spirits you find.

* Kill or Drive Off the Harpies 0/15
* Put the Kodo Spirits to Rest 0/3

Reward: Taruk has promised 2 Apprentices, 1 Bull and 2 Cows to be sent to Bale Modan when this is completed.

"We are in a hurry but I don't see as we have much choice. We will clear this place out, have the apprentices ready to go when we return." Turning to Zak'tir. "Make all preparations we should get this done immediately."
I think we should do it right away so they can go on back to Bael Modan and tend our flock. What do you guys think?

I agree, the main quest will wait, it is WoW after all ;) Plus when you return all the level up stuff/time passing will have happned
Taruk nods, "Excellent." He then gives you directions to the Kodo graveyard, it is south and west from the camp. From the directions it should be easy enough for you to find.

"Kay. I be redah ta go, ta. Let's us bein' bunin' da ugly birds frum da sky.", Lugar says with a smile. It will be nice to fight again and the blood of his ancestors boils with the thought of burning the harpies from the sky.

Master Taruk nods, "Bring me the head of the Harpy Queen, and I'll know you have completed the task." He nods his head and you offer your last parting words. Then you return to the center of the Camp/Village. The only true person of note you haven't spoken too yet is Mistress Nahren Plainsmane, the huntress who works out of the lodge to the south.

"Yes lets see the huntress first Sarge. Lead the way."
Sounds like a plan.
