The Drowned City is Forever’s level 35 to 40 dungeon in Stranglethorn. Each faction has lead-in quests in zones it already levels in, and two more quests are open to both sides.
Level is the level you need to accept the quest. Pick up says whether you can grab it before the run (Outside), only once you are in (Inside), or from a drop. Share tells you whether a party member can share it with you. Hover a quest name for its Wowhead Forever tooltip.

Every quest that starts outside the dungeon, grouped by where the giver stands. Quests with a prerequisite are marked, because the giver will have nothing for you until the earlier steps are done.
Objectives are listed without the story. XP is the base reward at the quest's level and shrinks once the quest turns green for you. Locations marked Classic location come from Classic Era data for quests Forever did not change.

8 in the game data: 5 an Alliance character can do and 5 a Horde character can do. 8 of them are new in Forever.
The earliest quest can be picked up at level 30. The dungeon itself is tuned for levels 35 to 40, so the quests open before most groups can clear it.
