What to do
Description
The undead are here! The Forsaken! They've been moving closer and closer, but to launch an all-out attack on us... those horrid abominations! The young draenei I was charged with have trained with the Highvale elves in combat. They are not defenseless, but they need help! Please, {name}, assist them! Drive back the Forsaken!
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.
- Quel'Danil Lodge
I may appear far from home to you, <class>, but quite a few of my people were led here by Ambassador Rualeth. We have settled with the high elves of the Quel'Danil Lodge, to the northwest, to train in the ways of the Light and enjoy the peaceful beauty of this land. Such peace may be short lived.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Highvale Documents
The Highvale have kept detailed records here for years. Deaths, births, seasons... but also vital scouting information and methods of contact with the rest of the Alliance. The documents will be scattered in the chaos. If they fall into the hands of the Forsaken, more lives could be at risk!
