I will not slay innocents. If they do not raise arms against us, we shall spare them.
Enter Lor'danel and capture any civilians you find there. They shall be questioned and then released.

Thanks to smoothdog, these are the translations:

- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] An nud landowar me ador - It all happened so fast...
- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] Mod ras nuff regenthor lo - Why are they attacking us?
- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] O melka ne odes an bor nud bur Garde bur - I would be dead if not for you. Thank you.
- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] O lithtos an wos ras mod Garde bur - I thought it was the end. Thank you!
- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] EloDerung ash bor nagan o goibon - Lor'danel did not stand a chance...
- Lor'danel Citizen says: [Common] Melka ras Majis EloDerung ash nostyec ko koshvel noth - Curse the Horde! Lor'danel did nothing to deserve this!
It can be taken as either the civilians thanking us for sparing them or Blizzard not changing dialogue for factions. I'd like to believe we did spare the civilians out of Honor.
In case there are some interested Horde players, there's a corresponding Alliance quest called Rescue Effort. I had to abandon the quest and redo it five times to get what I think are all of the dialogues.

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.

Saurfang! It's about time. Look around you, hero! What a lovely sight -- the wisps are scattering. One by one, the walls come crashing down. Now is the time. The World Tree is ours for the taking! Find Saurfang. We shall finish this once and for all.

This is it, <name>. Lor'danel is all that stands in our way before we capture Darnassus and reclaim Kalimdor. Rout the defenders. We cannot risk allowing a single enemy to escape until we have secured control over the World Tree. I want this place in order by the time the Warchief arrives.
