Description
It is already beginning, over the hills to the southeast.
Ner'zhul has everything he needs to summon the Dark Star. The Iron Horde attack on Karabor is imminent. This is where everything ends.
Champion, I must ask you to ride ahead and delay Ner'zhul. I will join you as quickly as I can.
Doing the Loremaster of Draenor on my lv 100 toon, I wanted to do it the fastest way possible. Without finding any solid answers, I'm providing the list of pre-quests that needs to be finished before I was able to pick this up.
Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
Quests whose map markers the client places closest to this one on Shadowmoon Valley, nearest first. Distances are straight lines between the markers.

Straight-line distances in yards between the quest’s own map markers (QuestPOI) and the client’s flight-point positions (TaxiNodes); flight paths and terrain are not modelled.
The Iron Horde have overtaken Karabor. If we don't act now, we will lose the city. Exarch Akama and the last of our forces are trapped within the city, but your garrison forces are still outside the temple, awaiting your orders. Come and fly with me. We will meet your forces on the field.
Steps, storylines and map placement from the client’s QuestLine, prerequisite and QuestPOI data; neighbouring quest text is Blizzard’s own (quest API), shortened to its opening sentences.
