You can run to the other side of the bridge before Khadgar blows it and end up on that side. You can jump into the river and go up a path on Khadgar's side when you want to catch up.

Description
The orcs in this area look like members of the Shattered Hand clan. You can tell by looking at their hands. Let's join up with the others. We must find a way out of here.
Where to go
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.

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Potential Ally
One of the captured draenei is receiving some... preferential treatment, if you can call it that. While others are tied down and tortured, this one is tied to a stake and burned for the orcs' amusement. Use this runestone. It should handily deal with the ring of fire that surrounds this draenei.
The storyline at a glance
The Shattered Hand has 4 steps, from The Kargathar Proving Grounds to Kill Your Hundred.
