Description

This is it, <name>. We've made our final push into Stonard itself.

I shouldn't have to remind anyone, but I'll say it anyway: We're not orcs, and we're not going to become them out of revenge or spite. Stonard will not be burned to the ground for us to dance on the ashes.

No, I want this done right. I want this surgical. Hold your head high and strike down any orc that picks up a weapon.

I just completed this chain, thought it was pretty cool, nice little phasing going on and we're taking over a horde town, awesome stuff. Then I'm just traveling around Stonard and level 60 guards attack me! Like what the heck I just took over this place with a bunch of alliance troops. Was that whole thing a dream? I don't know but I think it's kinda lame, ah well.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Marking the FallenSwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    We've taken more than we've lost, but we've still lost too much. Too many brave have given their lives for the Alliance out there. I want to make sure they're given proper honors no matter how fierce this battle gets. Take these flags out with you and place one on any fallen soldier you see.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Cutting SupplySwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    We may not be flattening Stonard into dust, but I don't want to have to go in there a second time. I want you to gather any supplies you see in the town while you're there. Without food, they won't have any fighters after more than a day. There should be crates scattered all over town.
