Rewards5,150 XP

Description

The power of the unholy is coveted among my kind. It makes up the very fiber of our existence, granting death to those that dare make a mockery of it! Thankfully there is a font from which I may draw from in my time of need. Take this unholy gem and make your way to the Ruby Dragonshrine, east of here. It is there that you will find Duke Vallenhal, death knight of Arthas. Weaken his resolve in battle and unleash the power of the gem upon him. It will finish him off and steal his unholy energy!

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.

    The blood of innocents was once used to sate the thirst of the blade. Alas, such options are no longer available to me. <Koltira pauses to think.> We must improvise. South of here, upon the high bluffs, is the tuskarr village of Indu'le.

After this quest
