Thrall says: This terrain is ideal for a stronghold.
Archmage Khadgar says: I can open up a portal to Orgrimmar only briefly. Reinforcements are standing by, I hope?
Thrall says: The very best.

A strike team pops out of the portal.

Gazlowe says: Somebody call for a fixer?
Archmage Khadgar says: ... You're entrusting a goblin to be your foreman?
Thrall says: Gazlowe oversaw the construction of Orgrimmar.
Gazlowe says: Orgrimmar! The impenetrable fortress!
Archmage Khadgar says: Wasn't it recently sacked?
Gazlowe says: Yeah yeah, okay, one little sacking.
