Description

I'm afraid that our "clean up" of Dalaran extends far from the shores of the Isle of Dorn. In my attempts to find you, I circled this island many times. During my flight, I sensed the magic of many familiar items--items that were formerly housed in Dalaran. Dangerous items. Someone or something has taken them who knows where. We must find these objects before innocent bystanders come to harm. Follow me.

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.

  • Feeling BlueIsle of Dorn · Level 80

    I fear... that it may just be me that remains, <name>. Or that the others are too far away to receive my missive. It may be up to us to build an outpost here and see to the cleansing of the crash site. So be it. It is just as well...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Trinkets, Curios and Other Powerful ObjectsKriegval's Rest · Level 80

    The kobolds here could get up to untold mischief with the items they have stolen. Take what you can back from them by... whatever means you see fit. While you deal with the kobolds around Mourning Rise's grave sites, I will go underground and search Kriegval's Rest and do the same.
