I am trying to find Elmore Grimwald. He has a weaponshop in the Dwarven District (northeast), and I have asked for help in their chat, but no one answers me. Can someone just give me a landmark, please? Thanks Quasi ---

I presume you mean [Grimand Elmore](http://www.wowwiki.com/Grimand_Elmore). ---

I’m not familiar with Stormwind (my ally days are long behind me), but you’re not seeing any “?s” on your map while running around? My personal checklist: 1. Run around some 2. Reread the quest to make sure you didn’t miss an objective. 3. Go download QuestHelper, don’t worry, you can switch it off if it feels like “cheating” to you, but trust me, WoW gives little direction as it is, and Quest Helper can be a big help when Quests give such lovely directions like (my personal favorite form a Night Elf quest in Darkshore) “Find the Red Crystal in the East.” Which no one bothered to mention was more like sharply Southeast, in the middle of the mountains, and was well hidden by a high ledge :smack:. > [@Cerowyn](#): > > I presume you mean [Grimand Elmore](http://www.wowwiki.com/Grimand_Elmore). Map: [http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=1416](http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=1416) So in the NW of the Dwarven District, presumably inside. ---

To answer questions: 1. No, no question marks while running around 2. Suposed to be in the North-East Quadrant of the Dwarven Section 3. Sorry I got the guy’s name wrong 4. Almost got laid by one of Santa’s scantily-clad elves with lots of white fuzz. 5. Hamanah-Hamanah! (Old Eddie Murphy joke!) But yeah… your ol pal Quasi (Wolkenlaufre is my name in Alextrasia) is still stumbling around in the dark, I’m afraid… Thanks for helping me out!😕 Q ---

What server are you on and what’s your character name (I promise this’ll lead somewhere if you answer soon otherwise I’ll be on the road). ---

Sorry, still stumbling around, but I’ll get it eventually. It’s a lot of fun, really. Got Julian (my 8 year old grandson), playing it with me, and that little rug-rat is already a Level 3!!! Thanks for wanting to help! Q ---
