Quest Log

Trouble in the Highlands

Trouble in the Highlands is a quest for level 80 in Isle of Dorn. It is step 2 of 32 in the Rise of the Red Dawn storyline. It rewards 1,450 experience and money.

Description

Both Geya'rah and Danath have received word of unrest in the Arathi Highlands--civil unrest in Stromgarde, and raids on Mag'har and Stromic outposts.

Danath and Geya'rah are returning to their homes, Stromgarde and Hammerfall, to defuse tensions.

I asked to accompany them. I have long wanted to reconnect myself and my people to the Arathi. I also want to learn more about the Horde.

Geya'rah was willing, but... Danath took some convincing.

Though, I may have implied you were joining me...

If, like me, you are extremely fed up with hearing Danath Trollbane's voice-line every time that you approach the area on an alt that's never going to do that quest, may I suggest the following:

Get the addon MuteSoundFile and use it to mute this sound ID: 6652259

That'll be the last time you ever have to hear about how much Danath understands Geya'rah's frustration. Instead he can join Geya'rah in blissful silence.

EDIT: changed file number to match the new one for 11.2 (WTF, Blizz! You trolling us?). Thanks to Pizzapotamus and Shadosan for letting me know below.

Is it just me or does Geya'rah not have any voice lines?

Danath Trollbane has voice-acted audio but Geya'rah does not.

I wonder whether it's a glitch or another 'voice-actors-were-on-strike' situation, like the one that rendered poor old Renzik the Shiv silent all throughout his final campaign in Undermine.

Is there any reason to do this questline on any other toon after it's done once? you can get the same amount of valorstones doing practically anything else. As TimeTraveler said, they need to put in more 'pass' options on campaign quests that don't actually do much.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Faerin's RequestIsle of Dorn · Level 80

    <name>, Geya'rah and Danath have arrived in Dornogal. They both seem upset about rising tensions in the Arathi Highlands. It sounds serious. Can you come to Dornogal? I believe your presence can help the situation. Faerin

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Torches and TarArathi Highlands · Level 80

    We've been attacked before. But this time... <Walker shudders.> This was different. They didn't want livestock, grain, or money. They took torches and some barrels of tar we use to fix our roofs. I don't know what they're going to do with it, but... I can guess. They're going to burn something down.
