I believe Stone would agree with me when I say that it is best for us to get away from Kul Tiras for a while.

You have to go to the portal from the basement you just came from.
If your portal doesn't show up ( mine didn't, even after reload and relog) if you are able to get back to the Plunder Harbor cave you'll still be able to turn the quest into Nathanos.

Part 9 of 13.
