You have to choose Altruis the Sufferer or Kayn Sunfury.

The one you choose will end up as your Order Hall follower:
Champion: Altruis the Sufferer - [champion=498]
Champion: Kayn Sunfury - [champion=595]

Also if you choose Altruis the Sufferer you'll get [champion=718] champion. Kayn Sunfury - [champion=719]



A New Direction is part of the [class=12] starting quest chain. - Vault of the Wardens storyline.
We were chained in Vault of the Wardens after the events of previous Mardum quest chain. Now we are in Legion time and the Wardens prison is under attack... We have to escape and save Illidan, but Gul'dan manages to take Illidan cage with him.

Description

{name}, as leader of the Illidari in Lord Illidan's absence, you must choose your second-in-command. Kayn or Altruis. You can only choose one. The chosen shall become your personal champion, and their ideology will color our decisions for the Illidari going forward. No matter who is chosen, our mission remains unchanged. If you need a reminder of our past, gaze into the Pool of Judgment. Remember the sacrifices that forged us into demon hunters. Speak to me when you are ready to choose.
