TheWoWDBLook UP for a rope. I had the wrong angle and couldn't see the flying machine with the rope. The rope has a green arrow on it to get a lift. It's just behind quest giver.

Description
You look like a {race} that needs help finding the scattered members of our alliance expedition! Luckily, you have happened to rescue the one and only Lindie Springstock, inventor extraordinaire! I've got my Scout-o-Matic 5000 all set to go. It'll fly up in the air and let you scout the entire area. I'll give you the honors. Use my Scout-o-Matic 5000 to find the rest of the expedition.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Quilboar Shadow Magic
Quilboar are primitive and savage. They rarely practice any magic other than geomancy. But these particular quilboar seem to be dabbling in shadow magic. They must be stopped. Slay the quilboar in the den. They cannot spread this magic in the island!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Re-sizing the Situation
The Re-Sizer v9.0.1 barely works on inanimate objects. I have no idea what it will do to organic matter! But if we do nothing, Wrathion will die! Desperate times call for massively experimental science, <name>. Take the Re-Sizer v9.0.1. I'll follow you around and calibrate it.

The Missing Expedition has 70 steps, from Warming Up to Aiding the Dragon Isles.
