What to do
Description
Iain, my second in command, bore the body of one of our fallen heroes to the cathedral to the west. He's the man I've put in charge of reforming a wing of gryphon riders from whatever scattered forces he can find. I would like you to help him. I should impress upon you the urgency of this task. We will not be able to hold here forever; the Twilight's Hammer or the Dragonmaw orcs will eventually overwhelm us. Putting together an active gryphon wing may be our only hope for surviving these conflicts.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Small Comforts
You're the new face that's meant to be helping Keegan out I take it? Pleasure to meet you. Maybe you can lend a favor or two more to the troubled Wildhammer that have made refuge here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Clan Mullan
If we're going to pull a full gryphon wing back together, we're going to need to move fast to gather the survivors before they leave or get picked off. I've got a bead on a few groups of riders that stuck together. I'm leavin' to find the Thundermar riders and the Moore riders shortly.
