Before you leave for Orgrimmar, have a look at that Tauren in the back gently petting his eagle :)
After the changes to the Horde's leadership in the 8.2.5 war campaign, this quest is now turned into Ji Firepaw, instead of Sylvanas, at the same location.

What to do
Description
What began with a simple feast led to a battle against an ancient evil seeking to consume the world. My kind of day! Your deeds have helped secure an alliance between Orgrimmar and Highmountain. These tauren will make a valuable addition to the Horde. The Warchief will be pleased.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Darkness
For thousands of years, the Darkness was held at bay. The wards stood... protecting Highmountain. Now they are gone, and evil is free once more. The Darkness that haunted our dreams... that even the kobolds spoke of only in frightened whispers... has come.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- How Fares Ebonhorn?
Three of the ancient wards are restored. The mountain is not yet secure, but we may have done enough to break Ebonhorn free of the shadows gripping him. Let us return to Thunder Totem and see how he fares.
