Description

Deep within the Auchenai Crypts is a tomb: A tomb unlike any that exists on this shattered realm. It was from this tomb, the first tomb, that the vast mausoleum of Auchindoun was born. You must venture to the Auchenai Crypts of Auchindoun and find this tomb. Slay the guardian of the crypt to release the captive spirit within. The spirit holds the key...

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.

Inside the dungeon: Auchenai Crypts

The original exiles on Draenor found death to be an unsettling and unfortunate consequence of life, and so the draenei hid their dead away in the subterranean grave-city of Auchindoun, a labyrinthine marvel located beneath the forests of Terokkar.

Bosses in the Adventure Guide, in order: Shirrak the Dead Watcher, Exarch Maladaar.

Entrance: Auchindoun, Terokkar Forest at 34.2, 65.6.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Secret RevealedNagrand · Level 15-30

    As my energies bled away over the centuries, a void slowly grew in my place - devouring the souls of those nearby. Helplessly, I watched as generations of orc souls were drawn into the vortex.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • What the Soul SeesNagrand · Level 15-30

    For several centuries, the spirits of Auchindoun coalesced into my darkened essence. Many of the catastrophes that befell this crypt were a direct result of my weakened state. Regrettably, there is nothing that can be done to stop this cycle.
