An Unwelcome Presence

An Unwelcome Presence is a Horde-only quest for level 15-30 in Terokkar Forest. It is step 20 of 78 in the Terokkar Forest storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Terokkar Forest at 63.4, 42.7. It rewards 4,100 experience and money.

Description

Our forces at Thrallmar thought they had the fel orcs contained in the Hellfire Citadel area, but the recent arrivals at the ruins to the east say otherwise.

We can't permit them to gain a foothold here. Rokag has dispatched Shadowstalker Kaide to the ruins to keep an eye on them, but we have to do something to keep them from digging in.

Go to the ruins, decimate their peons, and then look for Kaide in the trees to the north. He'll tell you where to go from there.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Stymying the ArakkoaTerokkar Forest · Level 15-30

    We need to show the arakkoa that they cannot attack our people with impunity. If we don't stop them here, the roads will no longer be safe for our merchants, couriers, or soldiers. My scouts have identified the leaders of each of the major arakkoa settlements in the area.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Firewing LiaisonTerokkar Forest · Level 15-30

    Over the past couple of days, I've observed a blood elf woman traveling to and from the fel orc stronghold and conversing with the fel orc leader. From her body language, she's clearly issuing orders. But why? Whose orders is she conveying?
