If the quest doesn't progress at the Snug Harbor Inn, fly out into Boralus Harbor (south) so the inn moves north off your map. Wait a minute and fly back to in front of the inn. Taelia should respawn and you can follow her into the inn again. The quest may still not progress while inside the inn, after Taelia is done speaking, but will once you move to the door to leave.

If you can't fly, log out at the bank and log back in and that should do the trick.

Oh my god, I wasn't able to find her for ages, but I finally found her. Taelia was missing for me after skipping from Jaina to Boralus. If you go to that Ferry Master at Boralus named Will Melborne, I will show you where Taelia is at to start this quest.
FIRST. Turn ON your Trivial Quest tracking.

Walk away from him on the dock. Once you get to the spot where you're under a roof, literally turn to your right. THERE IS TAELIA!
Blizzard support and I went back and forth on this for ages with them sending me up down and around, from telling me to talk to Aysa Cloudsinger in Stormwind, to a bunch of other convoluted #$%^. Looks like they can't be bothered to playtest this stuff themselves. But yeah, she doesn't seem to look for you anymore like she used to. You will have to find her.

So, you have to check four places in the city:


  2. Ferry Dock - turn left from the boat and talk with [npc=135064] standing on a small pier

  4. Tradewinds Counting House - follow the stairs up to the city middle level, you'll see the entrance in front of you.

  6. Snug Harbor Inn - follow the stairs up to the city top level, the Inn is there.

  8. Flight Master - leave the Inn and keep moving farther, see the green mark on the minimap

Description

I think a proper introduction is in order! My name is Taelia, member of the Proudmoore Guard and squire of Sir Cyrus Crestfall. <Taelia salutes firmly.> Cyrus asked me and Flynn to break you out of that Ashvane prison and get you settled in here at the market, but he neglected to mention that you're with the Alliance. I must say, it's an honor. Let's get you up to speed.

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.

  • Out Like FlynnTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    I'm relieved you woke up! Having to carry you would have made this job far less appealing. The name's Flynn, and my client in Boralus is paying me a king's bounty to break you out of here. You, my friend, are incarcerated in Tol Dagor. Used to be a legit prison...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Old KnightTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    These days Cyrus is the Harbormaster, but he used to be one of Daelin Proudmoore's most trusted knights! I lost my mother when the Scourge hit Lordaeron. My father sent me here to be raised away from the war. I don't know much about him...
