After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Halls of OriginationLevel 50

    It looks like the Halls of Origination have been claimed by a group o' tol'vir calling themselves the Amathet. I don't know much about them other than they're new in town and not the friendliest of types. We'll need tae get in there and re-activate the forge, or else Azeroth will be done for!

The storyline at a glance

The Forge of Origination has 6 steps, from A Titanic Problem to Forging Onward.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Uldum (5), Chamber of Heart (1).
