Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Leave Every Soldier BehindGorgrond · Level 15-40

  Hmmm. The ogron possess something of value to the Iron Horde. I'm sure they're unaware, likely just bored and in need of something to torture. I'd be inclined to just let them be, it's a fate they deserve. But we can't afford not to follow up on this clue.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Eye in the SkyGorgrond · Level 15-40

  The notes you recovered tell of a device capable of subjugating even a magnaron. Ancient legends speak of such artifacts, crafted by the worldbuilders to keep these creatures in check. I had discounted them as silly stories, but if they are true... <name>, Draenor is doomed.
