Description

I am an embodiment of but one aspect of Freya, daughter of the titans. I am the Lifewarden -- I was left here to protect this land against the threat of the Scourge.

I never anticipated the Lich King would send willing living servants to do his work.

I could easily crush these cultists myself, but I am all that stands between the undead armies and the rest of the basin. Go, <name>. Deliver my wrath to these insolent trespassers.

  • Cultist IncursionSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    <It appears the Avatar of Freya was right. The undead were not able to enter Sholazar Basin before the Lifeblood Pillar was brought down -- they used their living agents from the Cult of the Damned instead.> <You'd best warn her about the Lich King's living agents within Sholazar Basin.>

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Weapons of DestructionSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    The Lich King's lackeys have dared to bring weapons of destruction into my domain. I will not stand for this. Go to their outpost to the north and destroy the weapons they would use against the land. We cannot let the Scourge taint another inch of these sacred lands.
