Objectives
Assist Lady Jaina Proudmoore in Orgrimmar. Speak to the Warchief of the Horde, Thrall, at Orgrimmar on the continent of Kalimdor.
Description
At the behest of Lady Proudmoore, I will allow a diplomatic mission to Orgrimmar to question the Horde's Warchief, Thrall. You will assist her in this journey and keep her safe from harm. Return to me with news from Orgrimmar.
Speak to Jaina when you are ready to leave.
Completion
The Horde does not want war, <race>. Listen well...
Notes
Talk to Jaina in Stormwind: "Lady Proudmoore, I am ready to go to Orgrimmar. Please open a portal."
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Do not do anything that would incide the Horde, <name>. The Warchief has agreed to see us on good faith.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Let's go.
- Both the player and Jaina take the portal to Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar. On arrival, the Kor'kron Elites in the throne room come up to attack before Thrall calls them off. Lady Sylvanas Windrunner is also in attendance, kneeling before Thrall.
- Thrall says: Kor'rkon, stand down!
- Thrall says: Jaina...
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Thrall, what has happened? The King is preparing for war...
- Thrall says: Jaina, what happened at the Wrathgate. It was a betrayal from within...
- Lady Sylvanas Windrunner says: Lady Proudmoore, the Warchief speaks the truth. This subterfuge was set in motion by Varimathras and Grand Apothecary Putress. It was not the Horde's doing.
- Lady Sylvanas Windrunner says: As the combined Horde and Alliance forces begain their assault upon the Wrathgate, an uprising broke out in the Undercity. Varimathras and hordes of his demonic bretheren attacked. Hundreds of my people were slain in the coup. I barely managed to escape with my life.
- Thrall says: The Horde has lost the Undercity.
- Thrall says: We now prepare to lay siege to the city and bring in the perpetrators of the unforgivable crime to justice.
- Thrall says: Know this, Jaina: War with the Alliance is not in our best interests. If we are forced into a conflict, the Lich King will destroy our divided forces in Northrend.
- Thrall says: We will make this right, Jaina. Tell your king all that you have learned here.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: I will deliver this information to King Wrynn, Thrall, but...
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Bolvar was like a brother to him. In the King's absence, Bolvar kept the Alliance united. He found strength for our people in our darkest hours. He watched over Anduin, raising him as his own.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: I fear that the rage will consume him, Thrall. I remain hopeful that reason will prevail, but we must prepare for the worst... for war.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Farewell, Warchief. I pray that the next time we meet it will be as allies.
- Jaina takes the portal back to Stormwind
- Thrall says: Kor'kron, prepare transport to the Undercity.

Trivia
The title of the quest seems to come from a line of the Echo & the Bunnymen song, "The Killing Moon"
All of Orgrimmar and beyond can be explored while on this quest. The city appears deserted except for a large number of Forsaken refugees plus some other NPCs in the Valley of Strength, and there are some guards wandering around the rest of the city. None of these will attack, and though they are shown as hostile (red) they cannot be attacked, either. It is even possible to go outside and into the rest of the world, with more refugees outside the gates of Orgrimmar. It appears some kind of phasing is used to accomplish this: when in the river between Durotar and the Barrens (where guards will attack as normal), animals may be seen on the Durotar bank; they will "fade out" on approaching them.
