A lot of this information is wrong... It is stating that this quest is done in The Stonecore, The Throne of Tides and Blackrock Caverns. But the quest is done right around the npc in the water infront of him in Hyjal. You have to find mobs in the water that are attacking the eggs, hence saving his eggs.

When you defeat one of the corruptors, an adorable turtle slips out of the egg and swims to safety!

Comment by qwerasdf4321

Once theyre freed they may call you mama, even if your character is male

Comment by 178266

Tortolla's eggs?

But... Tortolla's a dude turtle...

...Isn't he?

Comment by 512576

I wondered about this as well. He definitely doesn't sound female.

My best guess is that he had consorts here at some point, before the Twilight's Hammer invasion.

Comment by Eillesthis

Tortolla's Egg hatches into Child of Tortolla.

Comment by Seethe

Draenei.
You are not like the others.

Braver. Stronger.
A part of this world...
and not the shadow that came before.

Thank you.

Tortolla, it was great to help you, but, uh.. you might be just a little mixed up there!

I dont expect him to seriously understand/developers change this, but it was something silly that stuck out to me.
