There are actually three different Alliance quests that are called "The Battle for Andorhal". They differ in where they start, and who offers them. At least one differs in text as well. See:  [15-30] The Battle for Andorhal

Objectives

Speak with Guthrum Thunderfist to fly to Andorhal in Western Plaguelands. Then report to Thassarian within Andorhal.

Description

I just got word, <lad/lass>. It doesn't sound good.

The city of Andorhal is in the middle of a three-way war between the Forsaken, the Alliance, and the Scourge. King Wrynn has rolled the dice and sent a death knight to lead the charge for his cause, but I'm sure he can use all the help he can get.

I hate to see you go, but they've asked for you by name, <name>. Speak with Guthrum Thunderfist outside. He'll put you on the first gryphon out to Andorhal.

Completion

It's about time you arrived, <class>.

Notes

On accepting this quest, Guthrum Thunderfist (flight master at Aerie Peak) gains a dialog option:

I need a gryphon, Guthrum. I'm headed to Western Plaguelands. My king needs me!
