Description

We need to get into Darkmaul Citadel, rescue the last survivor, and stop Gor'groth. Herbert and Crenna are going to cast a spell to make you look an ogre... and then you're going to take us in as your "prisoners." Speak with Herbert when you're ready.

That's quite a reach you got there. That's almost like saying "Hey, there are humans in this game! That's a reference to real life!"

There may be a discreet Rick and Morty reference in this quest chain.
Whenever you enter the Darkmaul Citadel, the Ogre Brute telling you to go to the cooking pit and wave at Gor'goth, followed up with "Show what you got!"
The ogre's voice caught my attention with how it similar sounds to the alien head from the Get Shwifty episode that says, "Show me what you got!"

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

To Darkmaul CitadelExile's Reach · Level 7-10
The last remaining survivor is being held within the ogre's citadel. Crenna and Herbert have a plan to get us inside. A small group of us will gather up north. You're coming with us. If we fail here, the ogres will gain control of Kalecgos and his powerful blue dragon magic.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Like Ogres to the SlaughterExile's Reach · Level 7-10
This is worse than I thought. The ogres were counting on us to stage a rescue attempt. It seems that they plan to attack our camp while they near completion of the ritual. We can't let that happen. Crush the ogres! Show them the strength of the Horde!
