How do I get started on this quest. I turned in the previous chain to the king, and then he showed me the quest, but disappeared (with the quest) before I could accept it, and now Turalyon is on the throne.

Edit: I was on the "New Boat" chain, and while Anduin (and Turalyon) were on the boat. (Quest was Allegiance of Kul Tiras), and Anduin was on the throne as well, so I could get the quest

I came here to say, in case this helps anyone else: if you get to the part in the scenario where you need to save Baine and defeat 4 Sylvannas forces and Destroy 4 inhibitor crystals: do not kill the 2 dark rangers right away. Let them NPCs engage and RP/fight a bit.

Killing them too quickly (twice) resulted in me not having more mobs spawn (could only get 2/4 Sylvannas Forces) and the RP for Jaina to break the crystals did not happen.

Description

When I was younger, Baine Bloodhoof and I began exchanging letters. Through our unlikely friendship, I learned that there was nobility in the Horde. He proved that by defying Sylvanas when she planned to strip the free will from Derek Proudmoore. That act of nobility will cost him his life... unless we intervene. If there is to be peace in Azeroth, our hope depends upon good people doing the right thing. People like Baine. People like you. Please, go with Jaina. Save my friend and see him home.

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.
