So, I found him in my emoush raid as well. I did not have the task from Bianca Galbraith called "A Goblin's Escort" which this is supposed to be tied to. I need to do another emoush raid in a few days so I'll test this out further. What I found was the above chat info, but we did not attack Higglin. Instead we said ready, and escorted him to the "Apprentice Foreman", whom we then hailed, and he took us to the "Delve Foreman". We hailed him, and he took us to the Elder Foreman. At this point the task failed on us, as the only chat message we got from al of them was: "I don't trusts you! Get out of here before they see me talking to you!"

Higglin got hit a few times, though never enough to be close to death, however his chat message does state that "If I get hurt it's all over for you.." so I wonder if you need to pre-clear all the mobs first so there's no chance of him getting hurt during his walk. I'll see what I can determine next run through.
Some info

Fisrt he's not level 55. He con'd even to me, level 70 ranger. He is in Tirranun's Delve when you do the Emoush raid.

[Sat Jul 02 23:22:13 2005] Higglin Diggerchop scowls at you, ready to attack -- looks like quite a gamble.

He is not aggressive though despite his /con.

You say, 'Hail, Higglin Diggerchop'

[Sat Jul 02 23:31:48 2005] Higglin Diggerchop says 'It's about time one of you showed up. I've been waiting for hours! Hours! Now, listen, listen! . . . okay, listen! I gots to go see me boss and then he will takes you to someone who will talks maybe. See? See? That's how it works. They says I'm a traitor, so this isn't gonna be easy, easy. Now do whatever yous gots to do and let me know when you are [ready] to move! I know the way. The way!'

[Sat Jul 02 23:32:27 2005] You say, 'ready'

[Sat Jul 02 23:32:28 2005] Higglin Diggerchop says 'Okay, now stay close. If I get hurt it's all over for you and I'm not gonna wait!'

[Sat Jul 02 23:32:30 2005] Higglin Diggerchop begins to cast a spell. <Reckoning>

[Sat Jul 02 23:32:33 2005] Higglin Diggerchop scowls at you, ready to attack -- looks like quite a gamble.

[Sat Jul 02 23:32:38 2005] Higglin Diggerchop snarls and moves in to attack.

Was a pretty easy fight for our Emoush raid force.

[Sat Jul 02 23:35:00 2005] Auto fire off.
[Sat Jul 02 23:35:00 2005] Your faction standing with Beta NPC KOS got worse.
[Sat Jul 02 23:35:08 2005] You no longer have a target.

He dropped nothing, not even money. He was up again very shortly afterwards. There was also another level 70 NPC in the zone, Apprentice Foreman. My the text I would say Higglin was going to take us to him but the faction seems to be messed up.

I never got a chance to petition or bug it though.
