Description

In order to infiltrate and disrupt the Blackmaw negotiations, we'll need to know where they're happening. In Blackmaw Hold to the southwest, I suspect you'll find night elven ambassadors milling around, making preparations.

<Haggrum spits on the ground.>

Kill them at your leisure, and search the area for important documents. Oh, and grab a set of their ambassador's robes, we'll need them.

From the Northern Rocketway Exchange, go south past the Blackmaw Scar to the main entrance of Blackmaw Hold. There are 2 main entrances. Take the left-hand entrance, and go straight up the hill. The documents are directly across from the entrance, (29,38) sitting on top of a wicker crate.
There are 2 ambassadors guarding the documents; kill them both, and and one of them will drop the robes.

I took screenshots, with luck, Wowhead will approve them.
