Herald of War

Report to Thrall at Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar.

The Warchief needs you, champion. Orgrimmar is in a state of martial law. All merchants and services have been shut down as the Warchief prepares for an unavoidable conflict.

I cannot tell you much more - not now. Not in this place.

The Warchief commands that our strongest champions report to his throne room. Go now, ! Take the portal back to Orgrimmar and seek out Thrall.

You will receive:

• 20750 XP (or at level 80)
• +250 reputation with Orgrimmar
• +63 reputation with Silvermoon City
• +250 reputation with Warsong Offensive

The demon lord, Varimathras, and the Forsaken's chief apothecary Putress, are responsible for this betrayal.

<Thrall nods.>

Yes, the same Putress responsible for discovering the cure for the recent Scourge plague outbreak.

Those that would not side with their regime have been executed or banished. Sylvanas was nearly killed in the coup.

The Horde has lost the Undercity. Orgrimmar will take on the Forsaken refugees until there is a resolution to this crisis. For now we are under martial law.

Using the portal that appears will teleport the player to Durotar outside the gates of Orgrimmar, where Forsaken Refugees are found in camps under supervision of Warsong Battleguards. Refugees are also found inside all over Orgrimmar.

The refugees will say any of the following:

Overlord Runthak has also gathered all the vendors and NPCs at the front of the Orgrimmar bank. The vendors and NPCs will ask the pacing Runthak with questions, who will then ask them for silence.
