Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You can find Norus Southwest of Al-Arqas. After the recent attacks, he could use some assistance with the investigation of the Third Sister."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "A frosty fella named David is worried about the crystals forming north of Frost Haven."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Make sure you fill up on stout before heading out there. It will keep you toasty... in more ways than one."
