Description

While you were at the Arklon Ruins, I received a request for assistance from one of our representatives out in the field. It would appear that the Consortium is having some 'difficulties' in trying to recover property from the blood elves, which they refuse to pay for. Please head east out of Area 52 and cross the bridge to the next island over. You'll find my associate, Gahruj, at the Midrealm Post, just inside of Eco-Dome Midrealm.

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.

  • Warp-Raider NesaadNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Warp-Raider Nesaad must be dealt with! I have no idea how he survived my attack, but he cannot be allowed to continue his operation out there. Go back and take out Nesaad. He keeps a small ethereal camp near the southwestern corner of the Heap. Don't fail like I did, <class>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Rightful RepossessionNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Our business relations with the blood elves appear to be at an end. A few weeks ago a large shipment of surveying equipment was delivered to them at Manaforge Duro. They have refused to pay for it. <name>, I would ask that you pay the blood elves of Manaforge Duro to the east a visit.
