What to do

StorylineHowling Fjord, step 40 of 162
Rewards3,100 XP

Description

Our mission in Northrend is to destroy Arthas. The Alliance are but an obstacle that we'll crush wherever we find them. We've managed to destroy their easternmost fleet; but the survivors have barricaded themselves on the Derelict Strand, south of here. Our forces should've overwhelmed their make-shift defenses long ago, but we underestimated their will to live. Seek my officers in the field, Dark Ranger Lyana and Deathstalker Razael and get them to report on the situation.

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.

  • War is HellHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    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.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Windrunner FleetHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    We have the Windrunner, the Queen's Reprisal and the Oblivion stationed just east of the Derelict Strand. Send orders to the fleet's commander, Captain Harker, that they're to destroy the Alliance's cannons. Speak to our bat handler, Camille, and ask for passage to the fleet's location.
