Quest text

What the quest giver says.

‹name›, ‹class› and ‹race› stand for your character’s.

I should go back to Gnomeregan and continue researching a cure for irradiated gnomes. But, I stayed behind in Kharanos because the town is my home and I wanted to help defend it from the Frostmane attacks. I've been working on maintaining and repairing the steam tanks. For some reason, Frostmane scavengers have taken a liking to the gyromechanic gears I need to complete the repairs. They're all over the Frostmane Front to the southeast of town. Will you help me get those gears back?
