Description

I'm happy to help in any way that I can.

To find Alleria, you must fly far north from here. She's hunting a new Shadowguard lieutenant in the hope of extracting information from him.

Last I heard, she was on the outskirts of a place called the Fracture of Laacuna.

How in the hell do I get to Alleria, at Fracture of Laacuna?

Ok, I didn't know how to get there and if I could fly there. So I watched the linked video. In it, it shows that once you meet Magister on the balcony, then you fly north west off the balcony to the nearest boat that is docked there in the air. Watch carefully there is a portal that you can zone through to the dungeon. In the video the player zones in and out and then once zoned back he flies on his mount all the way to the place on the map where Alleria is located.
I hope it helps.

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

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Where in K'aresh is Alleria Windrunner?K'aresh · Level 80

    While you were on your way, I took the liberty to ask around. These brokers seem friendly enough, but be warned... part of the city is still under attack by a group of ethereals known as the Shadowguard. I managed to get a lead on a few traders who might have crossed paths with my mother recently.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In Her ShadowK'aresh · Level 80

    The two of you fell into the trap I set for Shadowlord Vesheen. I need to know what his orders are from Salhadaar and what he knows about Xal'atath's plans. Now, the three of us are going to sneak into this camp and see what we can discover. We're not here to fight--just some reconnaissance.
