Description

Sounds like you'll be working with us for awhile. Cyrus will charter a naval transport between here and Stormwind, but I expect you'll want something a bit faster for day to day use. Head back upstairs and take a left when you get outside. You'll find an old study where the Tidesages used to conduct their magic rituals. Surely your Alliance mages have already sensed its power. Inform them they may open their portals there. The harbor guards will keep the room secure.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Old KnightTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    These days Cyrus is the Harbormaster, but he used to be one of Daelin Proudmoore's most trusted knights! I lost my mother when the Scourge hit Lordaeron. My father sent me here to be raised away from the war. I don't know much about him...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Nation DividedTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    Kul Tiras must be unified before it can be of any help to the Alliance. Let's get you briefed on the current situation in each of our major territories. Then you can take a look at the map behind me and make the call on where you want to go first.
