If, like me, you have abandoned the barrel of cider pickup quest and cannot for the life of you remember what it was called there is a link to it below. To get the quest giver back, use the portal to go to Stormwind and then use the portal in front of you in Stormwind to get back to the Jade Forest and the quest giver will be there again.

Description

How did my village become a battlefield? To the west, your Horde enemies cut down our precious orchard. Without our apple trees, we will have no harvest, no food, and no livelihood. If you are truly different than this Horde, show us! Help us protect our grove by killing those who defile the land.

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.

  • The Cost of WarThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    This whole place is going up in flames and the Skyfire is reporting that more of those... shadows are crawling up out of the ground. We need to get our people out of here. Clear a path through the base on your way north and head for the town. I will rendezvous with you there.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Critical ConditionThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    We may have won the first battle, but a critical task still remains. Dozens of Skyfire pilots were shot down during the initial aerial battle. Without medical aid, their condition will deteriorate over time, until they finally perish. We are their only hope for survival.
