Now that we have put our house in order, it is time to purge the filth before our gates. How thoughtful of those traitors to gather themselves in one place, so that we may slay them all in one fell swoop. Let us end this pitiful rebellion.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • MilitiaWar Campaign - Horde · Level 50

    The war has proven costly and our ranks have been steadily depleted. But the Horde is nothing if not strong. Each and every citizen of Orgrimmar is worth ten Alliance weaklings on the battlefield. Rally the citizens and form a militia! Remind them of their slain brothers and sisters!

After this quest

  • Most LoyalWar Campaign - Horde · Level 50

    The Dark Lady anticipated this as a possible outcome. She has prepared a contingency plan to deal with it accordingly. You are to rendezvous with her in the Ghostlands. Take this hearthstone. It is good for one more use. She will meet you near Windrunner Spire.
