Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Behind the BattlefrontTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    This battlefront has been undermanned and unsupplied for too long during my absence in Kun-Lai. We need to get things back in order here before we can pick up the trail of the Sha of Hatred. Taoshi is my best.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Breach in the DefensesTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    Normally, it only takes a few scouts to hold this pass. Most of this territory is in sight of the wall, so archers would devastate any mantid force attempting to push through here. The problem is, most of the archers are occupied with the onslaught at the gate.

The storyline at a glance

Townlong Steppes has 60 steps, from A Foot in the Door to The Terrible Truth.
