TheWoWDBSo I was sitting in the bottom of the tree thinking "where is the quest turn in? It's on my map, where is it?" Then I realized I had to go upstairs. Doh, I finally found him at the top of the tower.

Description
At the heart of Battlescar Valley stands an ancient tree - a tree that has withstood the force of ages and has served as a place of peace and learning for generations. My kin have studied druidism at the grove, alongside the night elves, for as long as I can recall. Now I am to believe that the tree holds within it an Alliance weapon of mass destruction? Krom'gar is wrong and I will prove it! I have sent my son, Orthus, to Thal'darah Grove in search of this weapon. Go there now and meet him.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To Battlescar!
I will allow this old fool time to plead his case. He has assured me that he will bring back proof that the night elves do not harbor a weapon of mass destruction. We shall see. While we await this proof, you will assist our army in the valley.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Betrayal at the Grove
Druid corpses litter the room. Something seems amiss, as you see no signs of a struggle. Bloody drag marks lead in from the doorway. You pry Orthus' death grip open to find something disturbing in his hand: a Krom'gar General's insignia.
