Description

I have given some thought about your situation, <name>.

It is not your fault dat de goblin deceived us. I followed along with his scheme as well. From today, you have my forgiveness.

But dat cannot help de little one. I fear we may lose it, if we do not act. We must ask de wanderer's loa, de mountain dat moves, de great bulwark, de greatmother of direhorns, to save her child.

Take dis offering to her shrine and ask for her boon... and her forgiveness.

The first time I did this it bugged in Un'Goro, Torcali wouldn't move and the quest didn't progress no matter what I did. I abandoned the quest and it worked fine the second time. So if you get stuck, just abandon and start over :)

The ring of locations is (assuming I don't botch typing or something):


  • Zuldazar at 67.9, 35.1 which ports to The Cape of Stranglethorn at 41.7, 18.9, about 30 seconds mounted from:

  • The Cape of Stranglethorn at 48.4, 19.0 which ports to the Un'Goro Crater at 59.9, 35.1, about 30 seconds mounted from:

  • The Un'Goro Crater at 52.7, 26.2, which ports to Val'sharah at 51.7, 72.7, about 30 seconds mounted from

  • Val'sharah at 48.5, 77.3, which ports back to Zuldazar (east of Tal'gurub?) and will remove all the portals forever


- unless you drop the quest before turning it in in Zuldazar and restart it, as I did.

I'm currently thinking I'll leave the quest unfinished for a while, although I'm not convinced it's really an advantage over existing fast transport.


  • For the Un'Goro Crator, Uldum and Silithus can both be reached trivially anyway

  • For Val'Shara, it's probably at least two minutes from Dazar'Alor, and that's probably not *that* different from flying from Dalaran

  • For the Cape of Stranglethorn - the portals might be faster than flying from the Dark Portal or waiting for a boat in Ratchet (I'm Horde)

I'll probably leave it unfinished to see if I get a kick out of using them a few times before going on the with chain :-)
