You're a bit late. Hamuul, Malfurion, and some of our esteemed guests have already traveled to the invasion point, atop that cliff.
Our gate to the Firelands is not yet completed, but it will be shortly. The sooner we can break through, the better.
Go on! Hamuul will be expecting you.

You will receive:
- 6940 XP (or 1
65
50
at max level) - +10 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal
Completion
<Name>. It is good to see you again. Our gate is nearly opened.
Notes
Nordune Ridge is the former location of Nordu, located due north of the Sanctuary of Malorne. A new flamegate is in the process, charged by Hyjal Ritualists. Charred Invaders are streaming out of the flamegate, being quickly met by Hyjal Assault Troopers in bear, cat, moonkin, and flight forms. Behind the front line are Hamuul Runetotem, Malfurion Stormrage, Saynna Stormrunner and Skylord Omnuron. Speak to Runetotem to continue.
