Take note that this quest ends in the IF Throne Room for a reason, on your way out [npc=1959] offers you the entry quest to Loch Modan. I did that quest before completing this chain, and had to fly to the quarry and walk.

What to do

StorylineDun Morogh, step 30 of 30
RewardsAmbassador's Duplicitous Dagger, Battleaxe of the Sober Dwarf, The Slaghammer, 10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

The ambassador's betrayal will long haunt me. You must arrest him before he can do further harm, or worse, before he can escape and start planning the next attack. Ironforge is not safe with Ambassador Slaghammer free inside the city. Take these manacles and go to the Dark Iron embassy. It's just to the north of the High Seat, around the rim of the Great Forge. Arrest Ambassador Slaghammer and return with him.

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.

  • Demanding AnswersDun Morogh · Level 1-30

    So just how did all those Dark Iron warriors end up here, on the doorstep of Ironforge, on the verge of invading our city? Does not 'Empress' Moira, a member of our esteemed Council of Three Hammers, rule the Dark Iron? This cannot have happened without her knowledge and consent.

The storyline at a glance

Dun Morogh has 30 steps, from Beer Basted Boar Ribs to Seize the Ambassador.
