Description

I've gone through all the research ye gathered for me and I've come up with a theory. As we know, the ore in this world develops over time, through pressure and environmental changes. But the Infernal Brimstone ye gave me had its growth accelerated through demonic magic, much like the saronite of Icecrown. If we're wantin' to test this out, we'll have to get the help of some magic-users. Take this brimstone back and go see Matthew Rabis. He may know how to breathe life into 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.
