The Lightforged

The Lightforged is an Alliance-only quest for level 40-90. It is step 1 of 3 in the Allies of the Alliance: Lightforged Draenei storyline, the opening step. It rewards 9,500 experience and money.

Description

Do you wish to hear how the Lightforged draenei joined the Alliance? It might be one of my favorite stories.

Most likely since it involves seeing our beautiful world from space!

It all began when High Exarch Turalyon invited members of the Alliance onto the Vindicaar...

This is missing. Talking to the NPC will bring you to the Vindicar and lets you view the NPCs talking, however since the mission to use the Lightforged Beacon was not fulfilled, one is stuck there. Currently, on Tarren Mill, 12 people are waiting at the Beacon. Blizzard stated that:

From what I've checked, I can see that there are no reports related to this quest, as it works as intended.

So if you are also affected: Don't worry, everything is working as intended.
