Description

Cowering, a Forlorn Excavator says, "Please! I have no wish to fight you, and I need your help. While we were sleeping, scorpions invaded our camps and began slaying everyone. I only escaped because their screams woke me before the scorpion that was looming over my head had a chance to kill me!" "While I value my life, I value my pride just as much. If you would bring me back the pinchers of the scorpion leader, Acarak, I could prove to everyone that I didn't leave before exacting revenge!"

Notes

It appears that just about any "Hearty Cave Scorpion" can be a Place Holder for Acarak the Crusher, Took me a couple clearings of the two rooms to get him to spawn.
