If you don't know the Orchish language, just say "Orctooth" to Grunak to get the quest.

You say, 'Hail, Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee'

Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee stares longingly into the fire, eventually looking up and catching your gaze. His eyes appear to be welling over, which is unusual for an orc but you get the feeling this is not an ordinary orc you're dealing with. 'You, Half Elf, come closer. Need [help].

You say, 'help'

Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee says, in Orcish, 'Lost Orctooth. You find Orctooth. Orctooth not here anymore. Maybe [guards] know where.'

You say, 'guards'

Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee says, in Orcish, 'Guard take prisoner. No can look for Orctooth. Say too dangerous. Say need to be watched. Have nothing. All gone. I stay [here]. You go find Orctooth.'

You say, ' Why are you here?'

Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee says, in Orcish, 'Left home after ice attack. Am prisoner. Oracles and mystics no help. Nothing left home. This better than home. Need new home. Ry`Gorr clan out there, somewhere. No other orcs here. Ask guard. Maybe [Orctooth] know where Ry`Gorr gone.'

You say, 'Orctooth'

Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee says, in Orcish, 'Orctooth missing. Need to find Orctooth. Ask where Orctooth is. Might know.'

You have been assigned the task 'You Can't Go Back Home'.




  • 1. Ask the guards if they have seen a kitten named Orctooth 0/1 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Say orctooth to a Coldain reclaimer in the same vicinity as Grunak. You may have to speak to multiple NPCs until you receive the update.

    You say, 'Hail, a Coldain reclaimer'

    A Coldain reclaimer says, 'Hello there, Half Elf. Have ye come to join the reclamation efforts? We can certainly use someone with your skillset to help us with that endeavor. Why don't ye take a moment and talk to the Reclamation Officer over there? He'll likely be needing your help.'

    You say, 'orctooth'

    A Coldain reclaimer says, 'Aye, now that you mention it, I did hear a scout say that they spotted a wee kitty to the northwest at the abandoned ruins. If you still think the cat is alive and you want to find them, then good luck, my friend. You're braver than I.'

    Your task 'You Can't Go Back Home' has been updated.



  • 2. Return to Grunak and inform them of what you learned 0/1 (The Eastern Wastes)

  • 3. Search for Orctooth at the ruins to the northwest of the Coldain camp 0/1 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Right-click the Sack on it.
    Orctooth reluctantly gets inside the sack, but you hear a terrifying growling sound that's getting louder.

    Your task 'You Can't Go Back Home' has been updated.



  • 4. Defend yourself from the restless Ry`Gorr 0/1 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Restless Ry`Gorr says, 'Freeeee uuuuuussss...'

    An orc will spawn: Restless Ry`Gorr (level 113). Kill the orc for the update (note: this orc has way more HP than standard mobs and hits extremely hard. Be ready for a long fight and for possible pathing mobs).

  • 7. Give Grunak the necklace you found 0/1 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Turn the necklace in to Grunak.

    Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee blinks, allowing for more tears to roll down his cheek. 'This... is clan symbol. Am alone now. Home gone. Clan gone. It just Orctooth and me. Me need time to be alone. Go.'
    As you turn to leave, the refuge calls you back. 'High Elf, wait. [Clan] need help.'

    Your task 'You Can't Go Back Home' has been updated

    You have been given: Ry`Gorr Blessed Torch

    You say, 'Clan.'

    Grunak, Ry`Gorr Refugee looks north, 'Clan die, but still move. Stop them moving. Take tooths.' He grabs a flaming piece of wood from the fire and uses his nail to scratch some runes into it, 'Here, take fire. Burn them to stop moving again.'



  • 8. Kill infected orcs 0/7 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Head to the center of the zone near the Ry`Gorr Mines zone area and kill orcs.



  • 9. Recover Ry`Gorr Tooth Necklaces 0/7 (The Eastern Wastes)

    Your task 'You Can't Go Back Home' has been updated.


  • Grunak wishes to be alone for the time being, needing to reflect on the loss of his clan. For now, it seems, you have helped him come to terms with what has happened. He is grateful for your assistance.

    Amazing how they drove this game off a cliff with mob HP bloat for no reason other than to waste large amounts of your time. Trash quest, trash expansion. More of the same from EverQuest dev team.

    You don't need to know Orcish to do this, just say "Orctooth" to Grunak to get quest.
    Then just hail him for the later updates.

    Quite a straightforward quest overall.
    Orctooth himself is cute.
