More than likely taken from the term used by the US military for a High Altitude-Low Opening parachute jump, also known as a "HALO drop".

The Sanctified Flaregun can be used while mounted.

Warning: If you hate puns, don't do this quest... a lot... It breaks the fourth wall with almost every quote. Mainly "Rez incoming!"

For anyone trying to figure out how to get this quest, there are a few you have to finish first. You must complete the quests around southern rocket way terminus till you get a quest called Hello to Arms that send you to Bilgewater Harbor. Once there, find the wanted poster that offers Operation Fishgut. It starts a chain quest, after which Halo Drops is available. Still debating whether it was worth suffering through the puns just to find a green cape to match my Gladiator xmog set.

This is ACTUALLY how you get the axe, disregard the fool I listened to below in commets about following multiple quests (which I wasted two hours doing).

Step 1, Walk yourself to Bilgewater Bay
Step 2, Find one of the 12 posters they have for recruitment.
Step 3, Follow 30 seconds of miniquests to shoot yourself onto shore.

Total time elapsed since Arriving at the Bay, 60 seconds

Step 4, Three people have quests, get them all, do the one that says Halo Drops (doesnt require combat)
Step 5, Have your item in less than 5 minutes (after walking)

In all seriousness, this goes against a lot of WoW lore, because resurrections are a rare thing that can only be done by extremely powerful beings.

"Heroes never die!"

... wait, no, that's a different game, isn't it?

Comment by Gwiez

Do the prereqs for Operation Fishgut, then go do that quest, which shortly leads to the hub with Sergeant Hort. He's right next to the undead guy you turn your quest in to.
