What to do
Description
The naaru of Shattrath City have been trying to find a means to bring the Consortium over to their way of seeing things. Luck would have it that the business relationship between the ethereals and the blood elves of the Netherstorm has recently soured. There's a Consortium representative in town named Nether-Stalker Khay'ji who recently ran into trouble with a pack of renegade ethereals. As a representative of the Aldor, I would like for you to help him in any way that you can.

After this quest
