Description
While you were in the mine, I was able to figure out where the Hammer of Twilight is being kept. They created it at the Altar of Twilight to the south. More important than that, the cultists have made a critical error: Cho'gall is personally overseeing its final construction. Many SI:7 died to bring us this information.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Fiery Reunion
That's Magmatooth, my estranged fire elemental. <name>, you gotta kill him or he's gonna kill me! It was all just a big misunderstanding. How was I to know he'd be mad about me "borrowing" his heart down in Deepholm? He can't die... not permanently anyway!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Skullcrusher the Mountain
It was a trap! Cho'gall lured you in with the Hammer of Twilight so that his gronn could finish you off. Survive and slay Skullcrusher the Mountain!
