TheWoWDBThe trick to this one is to click on the portals ASAP after Ga'trul does. This will send you flying across the room right after him and you won't get hit by all of the spells that he starts casting.

After Ga'trul dies-
Rell Nighwind says: King's mercy - what happened here? What WAS that thing?
Taran Zhu says: Your foe was overwhelmed by a dark energy we call the "Sha." It thrives on negative emotions, such as doubt.
Taran Zhu says: It has been many years since I have seen it manifest so dramatically.
Rell Nighwind says: I am not surprised. The Horde are monsters!
Rell Nighwind says: We are here on a peaceful rescue mission - will you help us?
Taran Zhu says: I have seen your Sky-fortress. Your people have an interesting notion of "peace."
Rell Nighwind says: Left to their own devices, the Horde will overwhelm your land. Will you not help us fight them?
Taran Zhu says: We are not afraid to fight. Our warriors, while few in numer, are extremely skilled.
Taran Zhu says: But we will not participate in this... genocidal... bloodbath of yours.
Taran Zhu says: Your conflict will have immense consequences here. Do NOT bring your war to these shores!

Description
Alright lad. We've taken enough jabs at this warlock army... now it's time to cut off the head. Ga'trul's back there, in that big ol' temple ruin. Give him a good what-for, and the Horde will have lost its last stake here in Pandaria.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unfair Trade
Though we have only just met, we have a common enemy: this group called the "Horde." Several days ago, their leader made us a trade offer. When we refused, his servants abducted several of our cubs as bargaining chips.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Onward and Inward
"Sha" energy, hm? Tread carefully, <name> - there's a hidden darkness to this continent. We'll stay behind to mop up the rest of the Horde, but we need you to continue with the main mission: the rescue of Captain Taylor, and the retrieval of Prince Anduin.
