Quest Log

False Flag

False Flag is a quest for level 80 in Arathi Highlands. It is step 23 of 32 in the Rise of the Red Dawn storyline. It rewards 5,900 experience and money.

Description

This was not done by simple bandits. This spot was chosen specifically for an ambush. And these troops were taken down quickly and efficiently.

If Danath was heading to Hammerfall, this road is the most direct route. That makes it predictable.

<Geya'rah grimaces.>

We must search for Danath among the dead and find out what happened here. Leave no stone left unturned.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Danath's DisappearanceArathi Highlands · Level 80

    My outriders discovered a destroyed caravan on the road. Around it were the bodies of Stromic soldiers. It could be Danath's escort. Or it could be another hapless group. Either way, we must investigate. Let us hope Danath is not among the dead.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to StromgardeArathi Highlands · Level 80

    Eitrigg was right. The Red Dawn are trying to start a conflict between the Horde and the Alliance. We need to get back to Stromgarde and tell Colonel Nials that Danath has been kidnapped. She will surely commit all her resources to a search! Come, <name>. There's no time to waste!
