The Final Step is a Horde-only quest for level 20-40 in Talador. It is step 25 of 27 in the Establishing your Outpost storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Talador at 68.3, 70.3. It rewards 4 reward items, 8,200 experience and money.
Description
It's time to fight fire with fire.
We have Morkurk cornered. His protections gone. Use the scroll once you engage Morkurk...
Witch Lord Morkurk is stunnable while casting the spell that "requires" you to enter a magical shield, but it seems your summoned reinforcements will get stuck where the shield was if you do so. Only having Morkurk cast the spell to completion freed them back up.
The shield that is spoken of didn't appear for me the first few attempts. You need to stand inside a dome shield after they warn you. Once it started appearing for me, the quest was much easier.
Nice rewards for this quest, including a new follower.
Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
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.
Quests whose map markers the client places closest to this one on Talador, nearest first. Distances are straight lines between the markers.

Straight-line distances in yards between the quest’s own map markers (QuestPOI) and the client’s flight-point positions (TaxiNodes); flight paths and terrain are not modelled.
There's a minor fire we'll need to put out before we can enact my plan. Morkurk has placed powerful wards throughout Gordal Fortress that will prevent any sort of mass summoning - awfully detrimental to our scroll of mass teleportation.
This isn't exactly my idea of the best place to talk. Shall we return to your outpost? It will be a much better place to celebrate. I'll teleport us there.
