Description

You've arrived at an... interesting time, {class}. All of my ships have been destroyed. Half of my men are feeding the fishes, and the rest aren't doing much better. We're as good as doomed. And still, the Alliance prevails. These Zandalari trolls are to blame for this carnage. I need to know how they did it before we kill them all and escape from this Light-forsaken island.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Zuldazar FootholdLevel 35-60

    King Wrynn passed along orders to dispatch our finest to establish a foothold in Zandalar. That means you. Fortunately, we have a few choices as to where we can set up camp. Stick around. I'll go over the battle plan.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Granting a ReprieveLevel 35-60

    Now, on to more pressing matters. The Forsaken have shown up and are preventing us from saving our people. All my soldiers are either injured, exhausted, or in no shape for fighting. It seems these trollish natives have joined them as well. I am spread too thin. Kill the Horde. Kill the Zandalari.
