This is the first quest of quest chain to recruit new demon hunter follower - [champion=990].
Chain can be started as you picked up Champions of Legionfall quest at the Deliverance point on the Broken Shore.

You'll take the quest as entered to Fel Hammer.
You have to interact with Control Console at south platform of Fel Hammer, that one where the portal to Dalalran is.
Watch short scene and turn in the quest to Kor'vas.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the quest's prerequisites.

  • I Am the Slayer!Level 45

    <name>, we have all gathered here to honor you for your leadership, successes, and sacrifices.

  • Assault on Broken ShoreLevel 45

    It has been a long and costly war, <name>. It is time we put an end to it. We will drive the Burning Legion from their seat of power and close their gateway into Azeroth. Our first step is to gain a foothold on the Broken Shore. Divided, the Alliance and Horde faced defeat.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Taking ChargeLevel 45

    Mardum has been quiet for months. I wonder why the Legion is attacking us now? Could be in retaliation for destroying their battleship on the Broken Shore... We had better head down ourselves and save the day, don't you agree?
