Description

There are several weapons of historical value that I believed were lost to time. I would bet my talons that they are here at this garrison. The dragonspawn and drakonid loyally cling to the memory of my long-dead father. Misguided fools. They have access to my father's forges and weapons, and it is likely the very weapons I thought lost are stored nearby. If they find out what they have, they will use the weapons against us. They cannot remain in their claws.

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.

  • With Our Powers CombinedZaralek Cavern · Level 36-80

    Emberthal is waiting for us in front of the Brimstone Garrison. Come, <name>. She will be pleased to see we have rallied the full might of the black dragonflight to aid her cause.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Wipe Them OutZaralek Cavern · Level 36-80

    Do you know what I see when I gaze upon the Brimstone Garrison? Traitors. These soldiers believe themselves followers of the black dragonflight, yet they ignore us, the true heirs to Neltharion, and bend a knee to the specter of our malevolent father. This cannot be allowed to stand.
