Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Running the GauntletSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

  Look around you, <class>. We've had no luck dislodging the Horde from the hidden trails that overlook this valley. They appear out of nowhere to ambush our supply caravans and then disappear into the hills!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Futile ResistanceSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

  <name>, I certainly don't want to deliver my report to Commander Singleton without at least a little bit of good news. We've got to wrestle control of these roads back from these Horde holdouts. From what we can gather, Kona Thunderwalk is the name of the ringleader.
