Questline took ca. 40 min, depends on your travel options
Not that it's a big deal, but if you kite [npc=145698] back towards the guard that's on the way there, he pretty much gets one-shot by it.

Description
Aegrim, you say? Bulwark of the Mountain King? Well, if we are going to start anywhere, it has to be Aegrim's study. The entrance lies below us in the depths of Old Ironforge. The only trouble is the troggs in our way. How about you take the lead?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ancient Armor, Ancient Mystery
By my beard! Do you know what this is?! It's an ancient tablet that describes how to forge the Bulwark of the Mountain King! The last one to wear that armor was Aegrim Bronzebeard, my ancestor and thane of the Bronzebeard clan. Talk to Advisor Belgrum.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Aegrim's Study
This leads to Aegrim's study. I still have some scrolls to sort, so I will leave you to search the study at your leisure. I'm sure Brann would be most interested in any of your findings.
