Description

I thank you for freeing me, <name>. I will tell our allies of my findings.

I suggest that you return to the emerald dragon that sent you.

The Twilight's Hammer does not just seek to gain territory with this particular attack. They're also after a prisoner.

Fandral Staghelm is being held in the Barrow Dens. The attack doubles as a distraction to free him. To what end, I cannot tell. Perhaps our dragon ally can shed some light on this.

IMPORTANT INFO:


  2. End of the Supply Line and Harrying the Hunters can be done by both factions, but "The Voice of..." followup requrement is different.

  4. Goldrinn's Ferocity and Howling Mad allows other players to share you quests next on line, but Lycanthoth the Corruptor{H} will let you be in same phase as npc.

  6. Into the Maw!{A2;H;H2}. There are 2Alliance and 2Horde variants, for each faction one from wolf spirit and one backup from main quest guy in Shrine of Goldrinn.

  8. Whole Firelands Forgeworks(8) chain doesn't have any pre-quests. You can get first time to Hyjal and ask warlock to summon you there and do the quests. However Lightning in a Bottle{H} is needed to use the standart teleport.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Twilight CaptivityMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    I'd been scouting behind enemy lines for nearly a day when they caught me. This attack on our frontlines is not what it appears, <name>. I'll give you all the details, but first let's find a way to get me out of here. Only the overseers carry keys to these cages.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Prisoner of InterestMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    The Twilight's Hammer wants to free Fandral Staghelm? Malfurion suspected his corruption ran deep... this just cements it. At any rate we cannot allow our enemies to get their hands on such a powerful arch druid. I've a plan, <name>. We will move the prisoner through the Emerald Dream.
