TheWoWDBIf you choose to stay and listen to Moira, there is a conversation with Magni. During this, the zone music stops and it swaps to playing the Dun Morogh soundtrack until their conversation ends. Really cool detail :)

Description
{name}! There's a battle afoot! We need to assist Machine Speakers loyal to our cause and move against anyone defending the High Speaker. I'm going to remain and make plans with Adelgonn. I need you to lead our forces while we're containing consequences of the High Speaker's actions in the Earthenworks. This is our first step in deposing him. We're putting a stop to his horrendous crimes once and for all. What do you say, {name}? Up for a scrap?
