at the end, after binding the mighty steed, the scenario tells you to "talk to grayson if you want to leave". I could not talk to him in any way, so I just left the scenario. luckily, it was complete and all I had to do was return to my class hall.

1. Don't forget the class hall is 2 mins flight from Strath, using the portal from new to old dalaran takes much longer than walking up some stairs. :p
2. you can mount inside the Straholme scenario, Praise the Light!

To anyone trying to do this in remix. You do not have to rush, just leave the order hall and fly in that direction. Yes the screen will turn grey with the warning but just keep flying. As you get closer color comes back and you can start and finish the scenario.

Description

We must now purify the barding by both material and immaterial means. For the material, we need to travel to Stratholme. When it thrived, before the plague, it produced holy water capable of cleansing even the darkest of magics. There still may be caches of it lying untouched there that we can use. Then it's just a matter of imbuing enough holy power into the barding to make sure it overcomes the will of Rivendare's mount, Shadowmane. Travel to the service gate of Stratholme when you're ready.
