The Southern Flank

Description

Our new arrangement with the Horde will put my people in direct conflict with the Alliance.

Bring. Them. On.

As we speak, the Alliance moves up the peninsula to threaten Dragonmaw Port.

Find Rok'tar to the south - I believe he has set up a command post on one of the shipwrecks - and ensure that the Twilight Shores remain in our control.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the HighlandsTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    With Orgrimmar secure and our Dragonmaw allies behind us, we can turn our attention to the conquest of the Twilight Highlands and the utter destruction of Deathwing's forces there. I need the Horde's best on the front lines. That means you. And all your friends. The Highlands WILL be ours!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Scouting the ShoreTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    If the Alliance gains control of this peninsula, they will threaten Dragonmaw Port. Not going to happen. South of here you'll see a small hill with a commanding view of the shoreline. Whoever controls that hill will have the upper hand all along the shore!
