There are 2 verions of him there. One sitting, and one lying. Talk the the one lying on the floor. Solved it for me.

Probably a mechanic bug when many people are doing the quest, as he sits up after you speak to him.

It seems that blizzard may have removed this character because you guys issue, exist. I spent nearly an hour circling one spot the map says this guy is at and I can not find him.

If for some reason I finally find him. I'll respond back to this and let everyone know I found him.

I don't know why, but those monsters are going out of their way to keep our men alive...

Our soldiers... they're all captives now.

Many of us tried to escape the naga.
I am the only one who succeeded...

Who are you, friend?

Private Reginald Pollard, 13th brigade, Stormwind infantry... sir.

How did you get down here?

We had them in our sights... the Horde ships... then out of nowhere, tentacles teached up and seized our ship... broke it right in two!

The survivors... we were captured by naga as soon as we hit the water.

That was nearly a week ago.

What can you tell me about your captors?

Strange... never thought the naga would go out of their way to keep us alive.

They create these pearly bubbles... one per man... made it so we could breathe.

Every day they send a bunch of the prisoners off... somewhere.

Never see them again...

How did you escape, Pollard?

Another soldier somehow got free and broke a bunch of our pearls... freed us.

Some swam up towards the surface... some saw this cave and swam for it.

I'm the only one that made it....

Did you see Captain Taylor and his men?

No telling...

They brought new soldiers in every day. Horde and Alliance, both.

Some would get hauled away the same day... others, like me, kept there for a week... maybe more.

Are there any weaknesses we can exploit? Any holes in the naga defenses?

Don't even try, <race>.

Get out of here while you can...

There are too many... certain death...

Comment by Whiterock

In order to getPay Attention! you must completeGirding Our Loins before acceptingHelm's Deep.
Better Late Than Dead andThe Abyssal Ride are NOT needed to takeGimme Shelter! and followups, however that would make you unable to getGood Deed Left Undone.
Lady La-La's Necklace have 0% drop chance beforeOphidophobia done and 100% after, however anyone can share you this quest as long as you are 80+lvl.
Anyone can takeVengeful Heart and do it's followups as long as they are 80+lvl. Quests above are NOT needed for it.

<<Feedback here, please>>

There's actually a tiny amount of misplaced "In Progress" flavor text if you talk to Erunak Stonespeaker before Private Pollard:

That's it, <race>.

That's all I know...

That would make more sense coming from Pollard than Erunak (say, if you were to try to talk to him again after the quest).

Add to list...Links

Debriefing

Speak to Private Pollard and learn about his ordeal.

	Private Pollard Debriefed

Description

This soldier was near death, but I fear we do not have the time to await his full recovery. He has information we desperately need to know.

Be patient with him, but keep him talking until we've learned all that we can.

With luck we might discover just what we're up against...
