Honeyback Harvester's HarnessHoneyback Hive IntroductionBarryBumbles
Some people like dogs, or cats, or horses.
Me? I like bees.
Shame about that allergy, though.

--- When Bumbles is out:
Barry: Oi, you there. Seems to be a new hive in town. Keep an eye out!
Barry: Looks like your little fellow is on to something. It might be able to lead you to their nest!Thin JellyHoneyback Hivemother brandishes her stinger menacingly!
Barry discreetly beckons you over.
Barry: Hey, I have an idea. Come here.
---
Just let me do the talking, stranger! I have a knack for this sort of thing.

<Barry winks at you.>

> Uh, sure?
---
Barry: We should probably start with introductions.
Barry: My... name... is... Barry!
Honeyback Hivemother shimmies.
Barry: Pleased... to... meet... you!
Honeyback Hivemother wiggles.
Barry: Huh. Very... Interesting! Continue!
Honeyback Hivemother spins.
Barry: Leave... it... to... me!
Barry: There we are. See? Nothing to worry about.
Barry: What? You didn't catch that? Haha. Come on inside. I'll explain.

They've certainly made themselves at home, haven't they?
Now then. I'm sure you have questions Ol' Barry here is happy to answer!
What can I help you with?

> What was that all about?

What was what about?
Oh, the Hivemother?
My friend, you really ought to learn to speak bee.
She told me that this hive is new to the region. No idea where they might have come from, but they're here now. They are going through the usual struggle to find enough food to keep things moving and the like. Something about ettins and bears.
Regardless, I told her we would help her out. So if you happen to spot an opportunity to help our new friends, I'm sure they'd be grateful.

> What do you mean?

Barry: You might start by taking that bit of jelly you found and feeding it to this here larva. Couldn't hurt.

I can't wait to have my very own spicy raisin!Comment by VikingKingAnother rep grind...Comment by darkelemental1Lets hope its not Alliance only or Horde gets a recolor (the Red one would bee perfect). Its not a matter that its the first one attainable by Alliance players its the fact its the only one from a quest chain that is, so far, faction locked.

Side question, will this count as an actual faction towards account achievements?Comment by HydrargirosAnother rep grind...Comment by NulgarAnother rep grind...Comment by artsylaurieMaybe it's meant to balance out that Horde-only pterrordax mount questline?

Not a good balance, one is a random drop to start the questline and the other has rep-grind but stillComment by AzraelUltimaI wonder if the butterfly net can be used to throw back energy balls lobbed at you...Comment by Wolfspirit1993might be rep grind, but at least it's a quest reward.Comment by andreiosMaybe it's meant to balance out that Horde-only pterrordax mount questline?
