Old Allies

Old Allies is a Horde-only quest for level 50. It is step 3 of 5 in the Stay of Execution storyline. It rewards 3,400 experience and money.

Description

Sylvanas was my Ranger-General. I have respected her for millennia. Making this choice is something I have been wrestling with for some time. Baine's death will tear the Horde apart. The Tauren will not stand for it and if they leave, I know they will not be the last.

We must save Baine. Not just for his life, but for the Horde. I can only hope once the time pressure is gone we may be able to reason with her but...

I have contacted allies who will help. Meet them in the Cleft of Shadows.

I got this as a loyalist but I couldn't find Nathanos first, then I noticed quest at my map, it showed I had to go to:
/way 50 45
Then I did my duty and continued.

tl;dr: Check the map when at Nazjatar and don't port to Orgrimmar rightaway ;b

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.
