Description

We have come a long way in a short time on this shipyard, {name}. Now it's time to run our first naval mission and control the seas of Draenor! I will need to setup shop from a high vantage point to plan out these seafaring missions. Meet me near the shipyard entrance and we can get started.

    Commander! We have received reports from the shipyard that things are getting serious. Can you head back to Lunarfall and check in with Merreck? Every ship we build gives us another advantage over Gul'dan's new Horde.
