Description

The Lord Admiral has proposed our next move. It's something we don't think the Horde will expect, but it's dangerous: We're going to steal back the Abyssal Scepter.

Your name came up as someone who could see it through, if you're willing to take the chance.

Meet Lady Jaina at our base in Xibala. She'll have more information for you there.
