Before he died, Udalo appears to have written a single word on the floor beneath him. The writing is barely legible but you recognize the word Atam'al. Perhaps Akama will understand the meaning of his brethren's message.

- Seer Udalo
I hope you're not shocked when I reveal to you that the pieces of the Medallion of Karabor you obtained from my minions are mere replicas. <Akama shows you an identical medallion in his open palm.> My Deathsworn and I have kept the secret from Illidan for as long as possible.

It has been known to us that the fel orcs, under Illidan's command, have guarded an Ata'mal crystal known as the Heart of Fury at the Ata'mal Terrace. They cloud its presence with dark magic, to keep it from the Sha'tar.
