The Black Morass is the old Blasted Lands, back when the Swamp of Sorrows contained the Blasted Lands area. In this instance you must defend Medivh while he opens the Dark Portal or your world will end. The Dark Portal is of the same model of that from Warcraft 2.

Description
The Infinite Dragonflight have abandoned all pretense of subtlety. They plot to destroy the Guardian, Medivh, and prevent the Dark Portal from ever opening. While outwardly, this may appear a boon to the forces of the Alliance, it is in actuality catastrophic and will result in your world ending. You must venture through the timeway leading to the Black Morass. Go west and then south, past my future self, until you reach the tunnel that houses the swamp specimens. Cross over and speak with Sa'at.
Getting there
