Our focus must expand beyond Kul Tiras. The Alliance still presses against our forces in other parts of the globe.

We are most interested in the Arathi Highlands, near Stromgarde. We've set up an encampment in the area, with the intent of capturing Stromgarde.

Speak with Throk, the recruitment officer for the division in charge of this particular warfront. He could use a good <class> like you.
