You can speak to him to begin the quest.

"Look at those catapults fly!
I'm amazed the towers can withstand the punishment. The Bretons must have used Orc crafters and they built that place to last. But never fear. The Winterborn won't have a fort to protect them for much longer!"
What's going on here?
"Kurog summoned the chiefs of Wrothgar to besiege the Winterborn. One of our biggest problems are those briarheart monstrosities. For every one we kill, two more take its place.
I know there's a solution, but damn if it doesn't keep eluding us!"
So what's your plan?
"We need to get inside the fort. Find out where they're spawning those abominations. But the damn harpies! We can't walk five steps without becoming bird food!
Siege Commander Dulph's working on a plan. I hope it's a good one—for all our sakes."
I'll talk to Siege Commander Dulph and see if I can help.

You can ask him a few questions before proceeding.

"This is the Winterborn's final stand. We destroy the briarhearts while Kurog deals with their warlord, Ice-Heart.
If we succeed, Kurog will have ended a threat that has plagued us for far too long. Maybe then I'll consider accepting him as our king."
The harpies and Winterborn are working together?
"Surprising, isn't it? We're pretty sure they're all connected through the hagravens, or whatever you call those ugly old hags.
It wouldn't surprise me if the briarhearts are also their creation. They're all vile, the lot of them."
What can you tell me about the briarhearts?
"The briarheart warriors are like the undead, only worse. They talk to each other. Think on their own. Behave just like any other soldier.
But there's no way they're alive. Not with half their chest hanging wide open!"
Their chests hang open?
"I guess you haven't experienced a Winterborn raid yet. You can actually see their foul hearts beating inside their open chests—except they aren't hearts at all. More like some sort of … malignant growth!
It's unsettling to see, to say the least."
Is there a problem between the chiefs and King Kurog?
"You could say that. It started when he claimed the title of "king." Many chiefs aren't ready to bend their knee to Kurog. It's not the Orc way.
But Kurog knows how to conduct a battle. Look around! No clan could muster a force such as this!"
But you're working with him now?
"Kurog believes that the Orcs need a united kingdom. We've banded together to defend our land, but beyond that? We'll see.
The Winterborn have been ransacking Wrothgar for years. At least Kurog has brought us together to try to put an end to that."
Unification sounds like a lofty goal.
"Perhaps, but tradition sometimes is too high a wall to climb over. We're a proud and stubborn people. New ideas, they frighten us. And Kurog is full of new ideas. A new city, a new god. It's more than many of us can take.
But if he wins the day …."

After the quest, he'll repeat his first line of dialogue when you speak to him.
