Waited a few minutes, like other comments suggested. Nothing happened. Thrall was still sitting at the bottom of the stairs, couldn't speak to him, couldn't click the helm. Abandoned quest, and it instantly worked. Got the quest back and immediately spoke to him.

Description

<Thrall's brow is furrowed.> We were speaking with the Highlord when he was struck by a jolt of agony. He said he could see something stirring in the Maw. Inside the Jailer's tower. The pain seems to be getting worse. We need to find out what he's sensing.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Captive KingThe Maw · Level 60

    King Anduin has not been found inside Torghast. I fear we could spend eternity searching those endless corridors to no avail. We must know what fate has befallen him. To peer into the tower represents a grave risk, yet we have little choice. Stand with me, <name>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Mourneblade BornOribos · Level 60

    While his father was missing, I cared for Anduin like a son. To see him like that, at the mercy of Sylvanas... <Bolvar's eyes flare with fire.> Something must be done. Take a moment. Let me know when you are ready to discuss what comes next.
