This quest does NOT count toward Unearthing Uldum.
This may seem elementary, but if you try to enter the instance to turn in the quest and it says you need to be 85, set your dungeon difficulty to nonheroic!

Description
One of our civilian leaders was taken prisoner by the air elementals. They are probably torturing him for information as we speak. Go to the Vortex Pinnacle, where these foul creatures came from, and look for Itesh. You will find the entrance to the Vortex Pinnacle hovering off of the southeastern coast of Uldum.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- The Scepter of Orsis
The chest below unlocks with a loud click as you insert the two stones into the plaque. Obtain the scepter and bring it back to General Ammantep.
- Under the Choking Sands
No... it cannot be. Orsis is all but buried beneath the desert sands. The enemy will pay for this. But first we must aid my people. Quick, <name>. We do not have much time before the last of my brethren are buried alive!
