Flickering Hope

Flickering Hope is a quest for level 83-88 in Eastern Plaguelands, added in Midnight. It is step 5 of 15 in The Path of Light storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Eastern Plaguelands at 73.9, 53.6. It rewards 12,150 experience and money.

Description

Normally, <name>, paladins from Light's Hope hold back the Scourge in the immediate area around the chapel, but they've all been called to fight the Void.

As a result, Scourge forces have greatly increased their numbers around the chapel. We've managed to hold the line so far, but only with the help of Darion and the Ebon Blade.

Give us some room to breathe--defeat as many of them as you can.

First time mentioned since SL that the Scourge is still a problem. But why should they gather together and target attack the Chapel? There is no Lichking left that controls them. They are just single mindless roaming zombies.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Relics of Light's HopeSilvermoon City · Level 83-88

    The holy power in my staff has been spent. Forty years of fervent prayers drained away in a few minutes. It was for a good cause, and my staff will recover in time. There are other relics, like my staff, that were important to paladins and priests.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Relics of Paladins PastEastern Plaguelands · Level 83-88

    Alonsus tells me you're looking for relics of holy power, to sustain those performing the ritual holding the Void at bay. Now that you've beaten back the Scourge, you and Arator are certainly welcome to enter the Sanctum of Light and use what we have for the cause.
