Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Breaking the ChainDurotar · Level 1-30

    Aw man, this ain't good. Not one bit, mon. Thrall's off to sea, Vol'jin's taking care of business in Echo Isles, and old Master Gadrin is left behind to take care of Sen'jin. And then what happens? Those humans come outta Northwatch Hold and set up camp in our backyard!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The War of Northwatch AggressionDurotar · Level 1-30

    These humans in the west, they don't just wanna camp out in Durotar, mon. They got bigger plans, and those plans involve takin' our home and leavin' our skulls on pikes. Well I'm not havin' it. Nope! Not Lar!
