Description
Windlord Thunderaan has retaken the Vortex Pinnacle, but not all of his subjects have taken to his leadership kindly. In his kingdom there is still unrest, and it appears there are four viziers who have risen up against him: Mistius, Zeph, Alacris, and Tulmos. We will let Thunderaan focus on the war against the Burning Legion while we send our champions to aid Skywall against its enemies.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Eye of Azshara: The Scepter of Storms
The element of air can be difficult to contain. We will need a way to magically anchor it to the pillar. Air, no matter how capricious, cannot resist a good storm. In the Eye of Azshara, the naga sorceress known as Lady Hatecoil possesses a powerful relic known as the Scepter of Storms.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
