Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• I Got Your Parts Right Here...Stonetalon Mountains · Level 10-30

  Here's the dilemma: I could do one of two things, get killed down here like everyone else or get killed up at Krom'gar Fortress when Krom'gar realizes we've lost the mine. I'm choosing the third option, do nothing. So far, so good. You need parts?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• And That's Why They Call Them Peons...Stonetalon Mountains · Level 10-30

  These two are USELESS! When they first arrived I thought we were saved. Not so! Instead, Dontrag and Utvoch took one look at the mine and concocted some idiotic plan that involved standing here until... until we all died, I guess. You don't look nearly as useless. How about you lend a hand, friend?
