TheWoWDBI love how this quest has absolutely nothing to do with the actual paladin storyline.. It's all "We must get to felblaze ingress to save the priests! but first, go kill this undead elf guy in val'sharah or we can't continue"

Don't one-shot him, it'll break and you'll have to run all the way back out, reset, and redo the dungeon.

Description
Highlord, news has reached us of a Legion presence at Black Rook Hold. It is rumored that the night elf commander, Kur'talos Ravencrest, amasses an enormous army behind the fortress walls. Take a group of your most powerful allies, Highlord, and investigate these stories. Lord Ravencrest was a formidable general during Azshara's reign, and if the reports are true, then we must know more.

Carved from the greatest mountain of Val'sharah by ancient elven masons, Black Rook Hold stood as a bulwark against the Burning Legion during the War of the Ancients. The nigh-impregnable fortress is also the ancestral home of Lord Kur'talos Ravencrest, one-time mentor of Illidan himself.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Translation: Danger!
<Delas smears fel blood across the lexicon's pages. Alien sigils blaze forth above the paper. She scribbles them down furiously.> My goodness... these are detailed records of the Legion invasion force at Felblaze Ingress. They are planning to open a portal directly to their demon world of Niskara!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To Felblaze Ingress
I have sobering news, Highlord. We have had no word from Chieftain Aponi Brightmane, young Arator, or priestess Delas Moonfang since they departed for Felblaze Ingress. We need to know what happened to them. We fear the worst.
