Objectives
Retrieve the Burlap-Wrapped Note from Brann's camp and return it to Archaeologist Andorin at Frosthold.
Description
After the discovery of Brann's journal in Grizzly Hills, we've only had one other communication from Brann. A mysterious note found its way to Explorers' League headquarters in Ironforge, with no indication of where it came from. All it said was that we're to meet Brann at his camp and help him with his search.
From what I can tell, the camp should be located northeast of here, across the Bor's Breath River and at the foot of some ruins from the Path of the Titans.
Progress
Did you find Brann's camp?
Completion
<Archaeologist Andorin looks at you expectantly.>
You were supposed to come back with Brann, not a piece of paper. What's going on here?
Rewards
Gains
- 22050 XP
Notes
Fly northeast out of Frosthold to the Bor's Breath valley. Keep flying east to [36.4, 64.1] as the river turns south to find the Abandoned Camp full of iron dwarves. A pile of Disturbed Snow can be found by the trees just west of the ruins of the Path of the Titans by the cliff's edge [36.1, 64.1]. Loot it to recover the Burlap-Wrapped Note.
On completion:
- Archaeologist Andorin says: It's those blasted iron dwarves again! Somehow, they found him before we did.
- Archaeologist Andorin says: They're not going to give up until they find him. We can't allow that to happen, <name>, and Brann knows it.
- Archaeologist Andorin says: There are some rather cryptic instructions in this note. Brann must've had some kind of backup plan, but he can't keep evading capture forever...
- Archaeologist Andorin says: It's up to you to find him before the irons do!

Objectives
Use the [Frosthound's Collar] at the Abandoned Camp to track down whoever took Brann's possessions. When you recover them, use the communication device and speak to whoever you can contact.
- Track down thief
- Tracker Thulin slain
Description
The tone of Brann's note suggests he meant to bury something with the note, maybe a pack of some kind. You're sure this was all you found?
Ok, I'm going to have you take one of these frosthounds with you. The frostborn use them for tracking. Bring it to the destroyed camp and let it get Brann's scent.
It should at least lead you to the location of those missing possessions, and if we're lucky, Brann himself.
Completion
You... you're not a member of the Explorers' League, at least not one I remember. But, if you've recovered the communicator, they must've sent you. Good, that's almost what I was hoping for.
Notes
Use the collar at the camp (after clearing it out), then follow the trail. Hit 1 to net pursuers and 2 to lay down a frost trap if they start to overwhelm. The frosthound will lead to Frosthowl Cavern at the southeast end of The Foot Steppes, where Tracker Thulin awaits. Kill him to loot [Brann's Communicator].
