Description

The dragon Sethria must be stopped. We know that her roost is south of here, along the southern cliffs of Hyjal, but beyond that we know little else. I have sent Thisalee on a fact-finding mission to Sethria's Roost. She specifically requested your help - evidently you made quite an impression with the young druid. Meet Thisalee just beyond the tunnel leading to Sethria's Roost. And remember, this is a fact-finding mission - don't do anything crazy!

Where to go

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Prayer and a WingMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    A winged visage? Could it be...? <name>, there's no time to waste. You may have been speaking to Aviana herself, trying to return to us. I'll need something from Aviana's past to reach out to her.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Gap in Their ArmorMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    Do you see what they're doing here? They're affixing armored plates onto the Dragonkin. A page out of Deathwing's book, I suppose. Those Twilight Juggernauts look like they'll be invincible once they're complete. There's got to be a way around that armor plating!
