Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Rook RallyIsle of Dorn · Level 80

  Now that we've got the conduit all charged, I suppose it's time we joined everyone on the peak. Thrall talked me through what to expect, but also said summoning the stormrooks will require me to trust my feelings and instincts. An earthen trusting their feelings and instincts. That's... a challenge.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• GoldbrickingIsle of Dorn · Level 80

  Is this what we are to rely on to help us defeat Xal'atath? The Unbound define themselves by their desertion. And the Oathsworn, for being made of stone, are pretty soft. City life hasn't done them any favors. We've got a lot of work to do.
