TheWoWDBI think I had a mini-heart attack when doing this quest. I went through the tunnel, and when I got to the end, I expected to see her there waiting for me. I didn't, so I figured someone had killed her and I had to wait for her to respawn.
Nope.
She slowly came down from the ceiling, and I practically fell out of my chair. It scared me half to death. Blizz did a great job with this quest; it was a uniquely nice touch to have her lurking on the ceiling. :)

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lost in the Darkness
Some would say that we are lucky to be alive. Those people would be idiots. At least had we died we would not have had to face the Warchief's wrath. Alas, what's done is done! Now we must attempt to regain our lost honor.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Orcs are in Order
<Admiral Hatchet hands you an envelope sealed with the mark of the Horde.> This is your commendation letter. It's the least I could do for you given the circumstances. Return to Lady Sylvanas Windrunner with the letter and inform her of our status.
