This is quite an irritating quest to complete. Once you make your way up to the hill with crowd on it you will see a small podium in front of the altar. Click on it and you will mount it in the same way as a vehicle or other mount. Your action bar changes and gives you options to work the crowd.

Members of the crowd will shout out comments (viewed in your chat pane - not audible) and you have to respond with a suitable response. You will get credit for correct ones and jeered by the crowd for bad ones. Once you have managed to get enough correct responses the crowd will start to riot and you will have completed the quest.

There is probably a place for someone in the future to record all of the crowd comments and appropriate responses. At the moment I can't be bothered.

OK. After doing this again and doing some research you may want to do the following;

Use Incite! when the crowd yells;


  • Raaahhh!

  • Blood!

  • Kill!

  • Kill them all!

  • Crush!

  • Death!

Use Pander! when the crowd yells;


  • It's like... it's like the void just touched my mind.

  • The end is nigh! The end is a new beginning!

  • Immalanath, yasoth nalarub!

  • I hear the voices!

And use Inspire! when the crowd yells;


  • Meh.

  • Yea... I don't know about this.

  • I'm not quite convinced.

  • *yawn*

If you get the responses wrong the crowd will yell things at you like;


  • Huh?

  • You lie!

  • Sit down!

  • What are you talking about?

  • Who is this guy?

If you get the responses right the crowd will yell things at you like;


  • It's like I'm hearing the Old Gods themselves!

  • This <girl/guy> gets it!

  • Tell it like it is, <brother/sister>!

  • <Name>damus, you're a born leader!

  • That's how it's done! Yeah!

  • History in the making!

  • Truer words were never spoken!

Hope that helps you all.
