Description

I'm going to withdraw what few forces I have. We may have to fall back to the Stormstout Brewery, or even Halfhill. That call is Commander Loon Mai's to make. You go ahead. Deliver word to the Commander. My Shado-Pan will be shortly behind.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Students No MoreValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35

    Those five students - the ones who were looking for the Hidden Master - they went up to the front lines, alone. I'd send Shado-Pan to aid them, but I haven't got any left. There's dangerous creatures up there near the wall.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Savior of StoneplowValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35

    That commander speaks hastily. He has the weapon he needs to win this battle. He has YOU. "But it's too hard," you might say. You would be wrong. It is not too hard. NOTHING IS TOO HARD. Go now, <name>. Go, and save Stoneplow!
