TheWoWDBHere is the chanty that the oarsman sung during this quest
"Beware, beware the Daughter of the Seas."
"Beware," I heard him cry.
His words carried upon the ocean breeze,
As he sank beneath the tide.
Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor,
Where sailors fought and died.
The admiral fell at Theramore,
because she left his side.
Why this? Why this oh Daughter of the Seas?
Why this? Did you forget your seaside days?
Always the pride of our nation's eyes,
How could she go astray?
When she did flee across the ocean deep,
the admiral followed west.
What else but sail to save a daughter's life,
and pray she still drew breath?
But there he found on the Western shoes,
Enemies 'pon the rise!
But when he faced those savage foes
His daughter stood aside.
Buried deep beneath the waves,
Betrayed by family
To his nation, with his last breath, cried,
"Beware the Daughter of the Seas."

Description
{name}! How's things going over here? Oh. Wow. There's Horde soldiers everywhere. And Zandalari trolls. And hardly any machines at all. We should DEFINITELY head back to Xibala, with the dark iron dwarves. It's perfect for our foothold!

- Mole Machinations
Seems the enemy's anticipated our moves. While we developed our refinin' techniques for Azerite, the goblins 'ave done the same. It wasn't five minutes after we established ourselves here that the Horde arrived to disrupt our progress.
