To Rhonin's Shield

To Rhonin's Shield is a quest for level 30-70 in The Azure Span. It is step 2 of 12 in the Vakthros storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in The Azure Span at 65.8, 25.3. It rewards 2,400 experience and money.

Description

Raszageth and the Primalists are launching an all out assault on Vakthros. We cannot let her succeed!

Khadgar and I will go ahead to handle the situation there from the sky.

In the meantime, make your way to the Rhonin's Shield, one of the last Kirin Tor camps in the area.

You may be able to get there faster by riding that drake of yours from the top of the archives.

See that the Kirin Tor there are all right, then make your way to Vakthros.

We'll be counting on your help from the ground.

Not only does the quest text end abruptly with "[] from the groun", but it also uses a "the" infront of "Rhonin's Shield", which also seems grammatically incorrect, as "Rhonin" is the name of the old Archmage of Dalaran, killed in the attack on Theramore Island, not the old title from japanese lore.
Hopefully this will be fixed.

EDIT 1st Feb 2023: Seems they fixed the end of the quest, but the problem with "the Rhonin's Shield" remain.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Calling the Blue DragonsThe Azure Span · Level 30-70

    I can no longer be afraid of reuniting the blue dragons, <name>. It is better for us to be a family... than a fragment of our former selves. Even if I cannot reclaim the oathstone, I can still use its power to send a message to all of the blue dragons. It is time they received word...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To the MountainThe Azure Span · Level 30-70

    It's a sight to behold up there, Khadgar and Kalecgos fighting the Primalists in the sky! They've summoned several mirror images of themselves to help you through the monstrous hole the Primalists have created. One pair is at the base of the mountains right now. If things start to look bad...
