Description

The notes you found, combined with Merithra's reconnaissance, have revealed Ashendir's plan. The flame wards that surround the Wellspring Temple are blocking our reinforcements. Our allies will distract Fyrakk while you and I slip behind enemy lines to destroy the wards. The skies are filled with drakes, and I must fend them off. Once you find a flame ward and thin out its defenses, signal me to destroy 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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

    It is only a matter of time before Fyrakk's forces decimate our own. And then there will be nothing stopping him from entering the Wellspring Temple.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Age of MortalsEmerald Dream · Level 10-80

    Once again, the mortal races have come together to defend a World Tree. It is only fitting then that we bolster their efforts with a relic from that past battle. The Horn of Cenarius. I entrust the horn to you, <name>. Use it to bestow the blessings of Cenarius to our allies.
