Rewards5g 25s, 2,050 XP
Description
I have a special mission that requires a well equipped, competent {class}. As I have no one else to spare, I suppose I'll have to settle for you... The enemy has assaulted Warsong Lumber Camp and cut it off from the rest of our forces. An important blood elf diplomat en route to Orgrimmar is trapped there. She must be liberated. Take the road northeast and light the smoldering brazier to summon our operative there. Do whatever he might require of you. Dismissed!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Pierce Their Heart!
There... The blood of the fallen Kaldorei is turned. It can now be used on the Forest Heart in Dor'Danil Barrow Den. Doing so will utterly corrupt it. The sacred relic of the arrogant elves will be turned against them. How poetic!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Making Stumps
As you've been told by now, we are to escort a diplomat from within the besieged lumber camp to safety. As it stands, that's simply impossible. The elves have a thousand arrows trained on the camp's exits.
