This quest can bug and if you can't turn it in, just go back out of the Gol Inath and find Proudmoore outside

Description

I didn't think you would find a way. Though at this point, I guess I shouldn't be surprised when you accomplish what seems impossible. I guess all that is left is to brave the Crimson Forest and see if this thing works. First, however, Katherine has ordered me to send word when you have found a way to Jaina. You can use one of our falcons to take a message to her.

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.

  • Waycrest Manor: Draining the HeartsbaneLevel 50

    The skull you have taken from Korvash needs to be steeped in Gorak Tul's magic to grant the power needed to bridge the gap to Thros. You must take it to a font of his power, and let it absorb his magic. You will find one such font in Waycrest Manor - the epicenter of the coven's power.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Runic ResistanceLevel 50

    Whatever is going on with this effigy, I don't think it's going to open the gateway without our help. These runes must be the key. There must be some way we can use them to activate the effigy.

The Pride of Kul Tiras has 24 steps, from What You May Regret to Thros, the Blighted Lands.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Drustvar (8), Tiragarde Sound (7), Stormsong Valley (6), Boralus (3).
