"Meet up with him"
Lorna Crowley has changed a lot.
Just make sure you bring your Mystic Woolies, because it's ... wait for it ... Skold-Ashil! oh, yeah...

Description
We have her now! According to these reports, Sylvanas' forces are after something in Skold-Ashil - a vrykul town not far from here. We must make our way there and track her down. I had previously dispatched Commander Lorna Crowley and a detachment of Gilneas Brigade to scout the position. Meet up with her there and find out what Sylvanas is after. Meanwhile, I will muster the fleet to assault their outpost. We will have justice if I have to reduce their camp to rubble!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cut Out the Heart
This map points out the strategic locations of the Forsaken forces around Greywatch. A marker to the east indicates an apothecary camp where Dread-Riders are being supplied from.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shielded Secrets
It's obvious at this point that the Horde wants something in Skold-Ashil. Unfortunately we still don't know what they're after. We think the secret lies with the shieldmaidens here, so we need to find out more about them.
