Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Inner CircleFelwood · Level 15-30

    With their outer sentries gone, the greater members of the Shadow Council are next. Deep within the corrupted barrow dens you'll find powerful Jaedenar Warlocks, Hunters, Enforcers, Darkweavers, and Legionnaires. They must be defeated if these lands are to be saved!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Demon PrinceFelwood · Level 15-30

    The Jadefire satyr that have overrun so much of Felwood work directly with the Shadow Council. These satyr answer directly to the ancient and powerful Prince Xavalis. Some say he is the son of Xavius, the first satyr, blessed by Sargeras himself.
