What to do
Description
{name}, now that those damnable proto-creatures have been dealt with, I've another task for you. One of my scouts has reported back some suspicious activity by the Forsaken to the south. It looks like they're up to no good at the vrykul village known as Halgrind. I want you to personally take over the investigation down there. Speak with Scout Knowles to find out what he's uncovered and proceed from there. His last reported position is at the Ember Spear Tower, just to the west of Halgrind.
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.
- Two Wrongs...
Now that we've riled up these Ember Clutch proto-drakes, they may be inclined to continue their attacks upon the keep. This will not do. I hate to compound one wrong with another, but in this case it would appear that we will have to destroy the creatures.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- War is Hell
We're slowly finishing off the remnants of Stormwind's North Fleet stationed on this coast. The bodies to the west are a testament to how brutal this confrontation has been. This does not happen to bother my refined aesthetics, but it does present a danger to our lives.
