1. Use the whistle to call a hippogryph.
2. Fly south past the Battlescar Valley, to Thal'darah Grove [41, 45]
3. Chase after the Helpless Young Druid's and pick them up on the mount.
4. Fly back to [40, 31] and drop off your passenger next to the hippogryph master Teloren.
5. Repeat until you have rescued 5 of the Helpless Young Druid's.

If you want to check out the Night Elf town in Thal'darah Grove's do it now, because the next quest destroys the area.

Description

My poor, defenseless young students are stranded at Thal'darah Grove. With the battle raging across Battlescar Valley, they have no means of escaping. We must save the children before the Horde drops their bomb! Take my hippogryph and use it to rescue the young druids of Thal'darah Grove. Drop them off at the hippogryph post here in town. Save them all, {name}! You truly are our only hope.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Warn Master Thal'darahStonetalon Mountains · Level 10-30

    There are dozens of students at Thal'darah Grove. Most of them have no means of defending themselves, ripe for the slaughter. You must get word to Master Thal'darah of the Horde's plans. He will direct you in what you must do next. Fiora Moonsoar has granted you the use of her fastest hippogryph.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Last Ditch EffortStonetalon Mountains · Level 10-30

    The Horde have signaled a retreat. Look now, they fall back from the field of battle - portends of disaster. We must make one final descent into Thal'darah Grove. I could not live with myself if any of our young druids were left behind. Assist me, hero. I will take the reins.
