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.

  • Shadow Over Thunder BluffLevel 40-90

    A dark force has descended upon us. I refuse to believe that the Highmountain are behind it. The cacophony out there is disturbingly familiar. Could it be... No! The minions of the Old Gods are attacking! We must fight for Thunder Bluff, <name>!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Shadow of the SepulcherLevel 40-90

    Ebonhorn spoke of another ward safeguarding the lands of the Skyhorn tribe. Somewhere close to the Sepulcher of the Sky, he said. It was there that this "Darkness" once manifested. Meet me there, <name>. I will show you how to walk in the memories of a great Skyhorn hero.
