Description

The kaldorei have been steadfast members of the Alliance since the end of the Third War. We have fought on distant shores and even on different worlds without protest. It is curious that in our moment of need, their resources are stretched too thin to lend so much as a single blade. Wrynn has already denied Tyrande aid. Witness it for yourself.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • On Whispered WindsLevel 50

    <name>, I have need of you. Maiev and Shandris are en route to Stormwind to petition King Wrynn for aid in retaking Darkshore. You have proven a loyal ally to my people in times past. I ask that you join their audience with the king and lend your voice to our cause.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Shores of FateLevel 50

    So be it. You are more trustworthy an ally than any army Wrynn would have sent. We will reclaim Darkshore together, but first we must find Tyrande. Without her at the front, our forces will crumble against the Horde. She left for the Zoram Strand with a small force not long ago.
