As an Alliance Paladin, this quest told me to go from Dal to the portal to SW. Then to Azuna, Then back to Dal. Vicious circle.
Just go to SW flight point, Fly to Lights Hope Chappel. Enter the Sanctum of light to turn in at the scouting map.

    The leaders of the Silver Hand have gathered. Listen to their counsel.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To FaronaarLevel 10-45

    We are keeping a close eye on Legion movements at Faronaar in Azsuna. Our intel suggests that a high-ranking lieutenant, possibly the dreadlord Balnazzar himself, masterminds the attacks in that region. This may be our chance to strike a blow at the Legion's leadership.
