What to do
Description
Between the Horde and the naga, our fleet has been decimated. We can't do anything to bring back the men who gave their lives to the sea, but sink me if I allow all of our supplies to be lost forever. Swim out to the Obsidian Breakers southwest of Highbank and retrieve our supplies from the wrecks and the ocean floor.

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.
- Kurdran's Waitin'
It looks like the attack stopped, <name>. Which is a shame, 'cuz we never got to use the <class>-rocket. Anyways, Kurdran Wildhammer is up in the top of the keep an' I'm sure he'll be wantin' to gives ya a hero's welcome. Yeh earned it! Go talk to 'im! I'll move on ahead and scout out the beach.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Naga Reinforcements
They've come slithering up from the ocean depths, <name>. The naga. I think their intent is to reinforce the Bastion of Twilight, probably by heading inland via the Verrall river. We can't let that happen!
