Tiragarde keep is a settlement from citizens of Kul Tiras. Kul Tiras is currently not on the map, but is between Lordaeron and Stormwind, near Tol Barad in the Eastern Kingdoms. This quest requires you to kill Northwatch humans. Before the Cataclysm and the Shattering, this keep was inhabited by Kul Tiras humans.

Description

Tiragarde Keep lies to the southeast of here, on Durotar's eastern shore. You probably passed it on your trip from Sen'jin Village. This castle has been a thorn in my side for too long. Humans from Kul Tiras lived in the castle for years, thwarting my every attempt to crush them. When the cataclysm hit us, the shore was wiped out, along with the castle and all the humans. However, these upstarts from Northwatch have moved in to take their place! <Gar'Thok roars in aggravation.>

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Riding OnDurotar · Level 1-30

    We gotta pass the word on to Razor Hill. These humans may be defeated today, but tomorrow they'll come again, and when they do, we'll need help from the orcs. Speak with Jhash, outside the gates of Sen'jin. He'll give you a ride to Razor Hill. His wolves know the path well.

After this quest

  • Exploiting the SituationDurotar · Level 1-30

    Hey there, handsome! I've had my eye on those big, beefy biceps ever since you stepped into town. Listen, I've got something for you to do. I hear Gar'Thok's got you headed over to Tiragarde. While you're there, think you could find some abandoned Kul Tiras knicknacks? Thanks sweetie!
