Description
The very heart of the Alliance is under attack.
The undead Scourge is swarming in numbers not seen since the return of Arthas Menethil. Amidst the chaos, something... terrible has happened.
What I am about to share with you has not yet been revealed to our allies. They will be told in due time, but I needed to speak to you directly before word gets out.
Allow me to explain.
Rewards

Progress
There is much to discuss.
Completion
We must find a way to rescue Anduin and the others. But in this moment, the safety of our citizens and our allies is our highest priority.
As such, I have reached out to those experienced in dealing with threats of this nature.
Notes
