Defending the Rift (Horde)

== Objectives ==
Kill any 15 naga in the Abyssal Breach.
* Kill 15 naga in the Abyssal Breach (15)
== Description ==
The whispers of the elements are crowding my thoughts, <name>...
The Throne of the Tides is under siege!
I cannot stand idly by while the naga threaten Neptulon's realm. We must find a way to join forces with him.
Nazgrim will escort me to the depths where I can commune directly with Neptulon.
I must ask you to take a more violent path. Keep the enemy forces distracted until I arrive safely at entrance to the Throne of Tides.
May the spirits see us through, <name>. 
== Rewards ==
You will also receive: and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
== Completion ==
They may think they've won, but my axe and I have something to say about that!
== Notes ==
There is no direct followup. At this point, players should follow Nazgrim and discover the entrance to the Throne of the Tides. Down in the maw, stands just to the west of the instance entrance and offers to teleport players back to the Abyssal Depths. Inside the dungeon, Nazgrim offers Rescue the Earthspeaker! and Sins of the Sea Witch.
There is no quick teleport back to the capital city, but remember the flight paths on the surface of the Shimmering Expanse do connect to the mainland. Additionally, The War Has Many Fronts, offered on the ships, but requires level 82, also directs players that way.
