Objectives
Accompany King Varian Wrynn to find Marshal Troteman, Hilda Hornswaggle, and slay 25 Horde.
- Horde slain x25
- Marshal Troteman found [79.9, 25.1]
- Hilda Hornswaggle found [80.4, 17.5]
Description
There's no time to waste, we need to find Troteman and secure the beach.
We should check on the dwarves, too - the Explorer's League is tough, but they're no army. They should be along the cliff just north of here.
Let us ride, <class>. For our friends. For the Alliance.
Rewards
Progress
The Alliance will be a shield, protecting Pandaria from the Horde.
Completion
I'm satisified with this site, it's time to bring in our fleet.
Gains
- 118000 XP
- +300 reputation with Operation: Shieldwall
Notes
On accept, Varian joins the party. A boss-level NPC with 590 million health, he flies the Banner of King Varian Wrynn, increasing health, healing and absorption effects, and damage dealt by 25%. Slaying members of the Horde will trigger King Varian Wrynn to release a warcry, restoring 20% of total health and mana.
Head northwest along the beach and start killing Horde Raiders, Horde Priests, and Horde Hunters past the roots.
West along the beach is Marshal Troteman and a few 7th Legion Scouts. On approach:
- Marshal Troteman yells: Brace yourselves, they're coming back around!
- A squad of Horde troops swarm Troteman and his scouts.
Help fend them off. When Troteman's out of combat:
- King Varian Wrynn says: Troteman, you old dog, I knew I'd find you stirring up trouble.
- King Varian Wrynn says: The survey team has done well. This is an ideal deep-water port.
- King Varian Wrynn says: I want to see a tower built right here.
- King Varian Wrynn says: Marshal, see to it that you hold this position until construction is complete.
- King Varian Wrynn says: Now, let's see to our supplies...
Hornswaggle and her team of Explorers' League Surveyors are fending off more Horde troops at the northern end of the cove in front of a small cave called Seaspittle Nook.
- Hilda Hornswaggle yells: Heads up, more Horde!
Help clear out the troops:
- Hilda Hornswaggle says: Explorer's League reporting in, sir!
- King Varian Wrynn says: I'm glad to see you contribute to the war effort. But I need supplies. What have you got?
- Hilda Hornswaggle says: Plenty of stone, aye. But no sign of major ore veins in this whole area.
- King Varian Wrynn says: I'll take it. Anything else?
- Hilda Hornswaggle says: Somethun' even BETTER. History! Artifacts from an ancient an' powerful race!
- King Varian Wrynn says: I'll make a deal with you, Hornswaggle. Help my men get a stone quarry running, and we'll protect your dig site.
- Hilda Hornswaggle says: You mean it? Oh, I cannae WAIT to see the look on Brann's face when he finds out I got an excavation green-lit by the King himself! You'll have your quarry by next sundown!
- King Varian Wrynn says: Hm. I used to think leadership was all about strength. I see things more clearly now - it's a little bit of give, a little bit of take. It's about binding people together. A bundle of sticks is not easily broken.
Once the quota of kills is met, speak to Varian again to turn in.
