A Veiled Threat

I will be occupied here in Northwind for a while, which is why I need you to deliver this report in my stead. It contains all evidence we have collected, as well as the letter you have found on the orcs. I myself cannot decipher it, but my superior is versed in many languages, Orcish included. Bring this to Master Mathias Shaw in Stormwind's Old Town as soon as possible. Tell him in person what you have seen and experienced.

I wish you the best of luck. King's Honor, friend.

What purpose do you have with the SI:7?

So Hawthorne deputized you as assistant for his investigations in Northwind. Let me see what results you have to show.

<Shaw takes a thorough look through Hawthorne's journal and an even more thorough read over the letter you have found at the orc camp. With a stern expression, he rolls the parchment and shows you the seal at the end of it.>

This is the seal of the Stormreaver Clan. This is an old orc clan we believed to have perished at the end of the Second War. I have read through this letter and what's inside matches with the kingdom's ailments: They issued the abductions of careless citizens, but turned their focus to Northwind for some unknown reason. Still, this is not the most alarming revelation about this whole ordeal. But first, a reward for your assistance.
