When the threat of Lei Shen appeared, Taoshi and Shado-pan forces left to Isle of Thunder to stop him. Though that Shado-pan remained neutral to both Alliance and the Horde, Taoshi notes that only if all three factions work together, than they can stop Lei Shen once and for all. Soon after, Taoshi forms a plan to take the palace shipyard, which Taran Zhu declares too dangerous. She goes to the two other factions, and with their support convinces Taran Zhu to give his approval. The plan -- involving Taoshi sneaking onboard a ship and defeating its crew, then unlocking the door to the shipyard from within -- goes off without a hitch, giving the Shado-Pan, Alliance, and Horde another step forward in taking the island.
