“Arngrim’s hunger was legendary. Even in death, his expression is one of famished yearning. You find that just looking at him is making your stomach growl. It is said that throughout his life he was never truly sated, and that there was absolutely nothing he wouldn’t eat. You wonder to yourself if there might be a way to feed the old king.
No sooner does the thought enter your mind than one of the massive frozen teeth falls from Arngrim’s head, bounces off of his beard and lands in your hand.”

Quick Facts
Walkthrough
| Step | Action | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pick up the quest | Interact with Arngrim the Insatiable’s frozen image at the eastern entrance of Dun Niffelem [66, 60]. You receive Arngrim’s Tooth. |
| 2 | Find a Roaming Jormungar | Head southwest into the Valley of Ancient Winters. Roaming Jormungar patrol around [57, 64]. Make sure you target “Roaming” Jormungar, not Ravenous Jormungar. Turning on NPC nameplates helps. |
| 3 | Use Arngrim’s Tooth | Target the Roaming Jormungar and use the quest item. It transforms into a Disembodied Jormungar (translucent, ghostly appearance). |
| 4 | DPS it down slowly | Attack the Disembodied Jormungar and bring it to roughly 20-30% health. Do not kill it. Use controlled, low-damage attacks (see tips below). |
| 5 | Wait for Arngrim’s spirit | When the jormungar is low enough, Arngrim’s ghostly spirit appears, grabs it, tosses it in the air, and devours it. You receive quest credit once the animation completes. |
| 6 | Repeat 4 more times | Wait for Arngrim’s animation to fully finish before engaging the next worm. Feeding a second jormungar before the animation ends will cause the spirit not to spawn. |
| 7 | Return to Dun Niffelem | Anchor Arngrim’s Tooth back in his frozen jaw at [66, 60] to complete the quest. |

Lore Context
Arngrim the Insatiable was the former King of the frost giants and predecessor to the current leader, King Jokkum (his son).
He was killed when Thorim, deceived by Loken into believing the frost giants murdered his wife Sif, hurled his hammer Krolmir at Arngrim in a fit of rage. The resulting explosion froze the entire battlefield in time, creating the area known as Thunderfall. In his dying act, Arngrim cast a rune on the hammer to prevent anyone from claiming it.
In Norse mythology, Arngrim was a legendary berserker from the Hervarar saga who wielded the cursed sword Tyrfing and fathered twelve sons, all of whom became berserkers themselves. His epithet “the Insatiable” in WoW references his legendary appetites, which persisted even beyond death.

Vikstone's War JournalThey have him standing in Dun Niffelem. Arngrim the Insatiable, frozen exactly as he fell, brought down off the field at Thunderfall and set up in the middle of his own town.
Looking at him made my own stomach growl.
He was fighting frost dwarves when Krolmir came down on the lot of them, and he had time enough afterward to set a rune on the hammer so that nobody could ever take it up.
Jokkum is his son. I have been running errands for that man for weeks and it did not occur to anyone to mention that the frozen giant in the square was his father.
Arngrim’s hunger was legendary, they say. There was nothing he would not eat. His face is still set in it, and standing in front of him turned my own stomach over.
I wondered whether there was any way to feed him. The thought had barely finished arriving when one of his teeth came loose, bounced off his beard, and landed in my hands. A frozen corpse handed me a tool the moment I thought of needing one. I put it in my belt.
The roaming jormungar are out in the Valley of Ancient Winters. Where the tooth touches them it pulls the spirit out through the hide, and what is left on the snow afterward goes on writhing and does not appear to have noticed. I brought five of them down to where they could barely move, and something came across the air out of the direction of Dun Niffelem and took each one.
I anchored the tooth back into his jaw when I got in. It took both arms.
The edge is off him. That is all that is off him, and tomorrow it will not be.
The frost giants had another appetite worth feeding in the shape of the titan wreckage littering their valley, so somebody wanted Ancient Relics.
