TheWoWDBIf you're wondering why you can't turn in the quest even though the icon to do so appears on your map, you actually have to:
- follow the blue smoke line down and to your left, then into the post office;
- talk to the friendly NPC and fight the mobs
Then you can turn in the quest.

when the questline is sus
For me the quest seems bugged. I investigate the void presence the void fog rises and shows me the way but the quest step doesn't complete so I'm not able to proceed with the quest. Any ideas?

Description
Alleria, {name}... Have you sensed it? The Void lingers in all of this. Whoever is pulling the strings is cloaked in shadow, hiding from us. Come, let's seek them out and drag them into the light before they strike.
Where to go
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.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Lost Lines of Defense
This is not a good day! Not at all. My whole shipment of barrier projectors was ransacked! Most of them are gone, and it seems whatever the culprits didn't take, they destroyed. These barrier projectors are essential for securing the wild places on K'aresh, and even the city of Tazavesh.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Barriers to Entry
Those barrier projectors we recovered? We need them now. Place them at key points to reinforce the city shield and block more portals from forming. Move swiftly, <name>. This may be our only chance to stop the Shadowguard from flooding in.
