Collect the Head of the Baron in the Ruins of Lordaeron and bring it back to Captain Truman.
Ruins of Lordaeron
The ruined capital above Undercity, now a 15–20 dungeon with faction-specific quests: the Forsaken reclaiming Lordaeron on one side and the Alliance recovering what the Scourge left on the other. The Baron drops the Abomination Bones and Leftover Abomination Skin chest pieces.

- Both factions have their own Crest of Lordaeron quest with separate IDs; check the faction tag before you share.
- Remember That I Love You and Bloodied Insignia are Alliance; Unending Torment, A Frightened Request, Light's Justice and The New Plague are Horde.
