Description
<The F.C.D. hums.> Our next outpost is Rutsak's Guard, located due east of Dreadwatch. Make your way to Rutsak's while avoiding the worgen rushers, {name}. You don't want to deal with those monsters by yourself. If you make it there in one piece, look for Captain Rutsak. Just be prepared for the worst.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Break in Communications: Dreadwatch Outpost
I'm not gonna lie to you, <name>. What I'm about to ask you to do is suicide. Chance of failure is about 95%. All communication from Dreadwatch Outpost has been severed. With the worgen constantly rushing us we have no means by which to get to Dreadwatch to check on our soldiers.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- On Whose Orders?
<The F.C.D. buzzes.> The 7th Legion are an elite special ops regiment. They've been there, behind the scenes, for almost every major offensive and military engagement the Alliance has ever done. This is bad news. How did they get past our warships? And on whose orders are they here?
