Rewards4,100 XP

Description

Who goes there? Your footsteps are not the lazy stride of a guard. A {class}, you say? Still brave and free? There's no hope for me, friend. I have lost my eyesight and am no longer fit for battle. I dared speak up while Captain Peake savagely beat one of the prisoners. In return he kicked me in the head. And kept kicking. He kicked me blind, {race}. You'll find Captain Peake at the top of this tower. If you seek justice, bring me his eyes. If he does not part with them willingly... so be it.

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.

  • Warriors' RedemptionSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Those that surrendered when Honor's Stand fell are no longer worthy of our Horde, <class>. But I'm not giving up on them yet. The prison tower below us is lightly guarded. Let's give those prisoners one final chance to die with honor.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Holdout at Hunter's HillSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Honor's Stand may have been lost, but its spirit was never crushed. Even now survivors are holding out at a point called "Hunter's Hill." Continue following the high road and you will find our camp just up ahead.
