Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • AbductionBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    <name>, we have a situation. I've just learned that one of our archmages en route from Dalaran has gone missing. Naturally, we suspect the mage hunters are behind her disappearance. Time is clearly of the essence.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Art of PersuasionBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    It is fortunate you're here, <race>. You see, the Kirin Tor code of conduct frowns upon our taking certain 'extreme' measures - even in desperate times such as these. You, however, as an outsider, are not bound by such restrictions and could take any steps necessary in the retrieval of information.
