Description

There were rumors about the events you speak of among the death knights. I always expected the story to be more... symbolic. We must warn others, but we must be discreet. As soon as the Lich King knows we're making our move, he'll move the location of the heart -- we'll never get a chance like this again. The Horde and the Alliance have been infiltrated by the Cult of the Damned before. The Ebon Blade operates too close to the Scourge. We have to speak to Tirion Fordring and his Argent Crusade.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Knowledge is a Terrible BurdenIcecrown · Level 25-30

    Now you know what you're up against, <name>. An opponent who no longer knows pain... remorse... or humanity. An opponent who will do anything to get what he wants. The heart was his weakness and now he knows you've found it. If you're going to go back for it, you'd best bring help.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Tirion's GambitIcecrown · Level 25-30

    Just this morning, my scouts informed me of a Cult of the Damned procession leaving from Icecrown Citadel to the Cathedral of Darkness, bearing an artifact. And now I learn that it might be Arthas's own heart... a thing containing the last bit of his remaining humanity. This is a sign of the Light.
