The time to strike is now. We must take the Tidestone of Golganneth and the Javelin of Suramar is our best chance of piercing the barrier around it.

We will need your strength in addition to the Javelin, <name>. We do not have enough forces to take it on our own.

Notes
- Upon accept
- Lor'themar Theron says: I will marshal our forces. We will meet you near the Tidestone.
- Arriving at the destination
The Alliance group include Jaina Proudmoore, Genn Greymane, Blademaster Okani, and Alliance Skirmishers. Horde group consists of Lor'themar, Thalyssra, Atolia Seapearl, and Horde Skirmishers.
- Lor'themar Theron says: Your arrival is timely. They seem to be spoiling for a fight.
- Genn Greymane says: I thought I smelled an ambush....
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: This is our best opportunity to seize the Tidestone from Azshara's grasp.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Their champion holds the Javelin of Suramar. We should hear what they have to say.
- Interacting with Lor'themar
This is it. It will have to do.
Are you ready to begin the assault?
I am ready. Sound the advance!
- Lor'themar Theron says: Thalyssra, there is little our troops can do against the guardian. We shall assault the nearby naga camp to buy you the time you need.
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: Very well. We must distract the guardian so our champion can breach her defenses. Lady Proudmoore, we stand a better chance if we work together.
- Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Your plan is sound. Let's see it done.
- Genn Greymane says: Be warned that if I catch even the scent of treachery, I will tear you to shreds.
- The group marches towards the Gorgonian Overlook.
- Entering Gorgonian Overlook
- The player is joined by Lor'themar and Genn.
- Lor'themar Theron says: I shall accompany you. Together, we will strike at the heart of the camp.
- Genn Greymane says: Two against one, is it? You are right to beware of me, elf.
To fill up the bar, kill Zanj'ir Defenders, Zanj'ir Bulwarks, Azsh'ari Stormwitches and interact with Barricades and Scrolls of Aquatic Abjuration.
- Genn Greymane says: Hmph. You fight well... for an elf.
- Lor'themar Theron says: And you fight well for a wolf.
- Lor'themar Theron says: Impressive, Greymane. A pity we never had the honor of facing one another on the battlefield.
- Genn Greymane says: How fortunate that we never did. It would have been a waste to kill you.
- Bar filled
- Genn Greymane says: Our soldiers can handle the rest. Now for their leader.
- Kresh attacked and killed
- Commander Kresh says: No escape, landwalker!
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: Strike now, champion! Throw the Javelin!
Use the extra button to throw the javelin. A scene plays out.
Jaina and Thalyssra are no longer under a protective barrier but attacked Zharessa.
- Lady Zharessa says: I do not need the Tidestone's power to defeat you! I am the queen's champion!
- Lady Zharessa says: Merely glimpsing my queen's visage would strike you blind.
- Lady Zharessa says: Impudent wretches! You shall all drown!
- Lady Zharessa says: Nazjatar will be your grave!
- Lady Zharessa says: No! I... cannot fail... my queen....
- Upon completion
- A scene plays out. Lor'themar, Jaina, Thalyssra, and Genn walk towards the Tidestone.
- Lor'themar Theron says: Azshara's forces are routed. We have broken her hold on the Tidestone.
- Jaina Proudmoore says: Our way into the palace remains blocked.
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: The Tidestone's power could be used to shatter the barrier...
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: But I cannot control its energies on my own.
- Jaina Proudmoore says: Perhaps we could... together.
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: So be it.
- Jaina and Thalyssra channel a spell through the Tidestone and shatter the barrier.
- First Arcanist Thalyssra says: It is done. The way is open.
- Jaina Proudmoore says: Azshara's reign must end.
