Description

The Scourge are at Gjalerbron and they have necromancers with them! They must be working to bring the vrykul into Arthas' fold.

I want the leader of these necrolords eliminated!

Do whatever it takes, <name>, but see to it that Necro Overlord Mezhen, and whatever he's attempting to accomplish, is neutralized.

I will not see the vrykul successfully allied with the Scourge!

Look for Mezhen on the platform in the rear right section of Gjalerbron.

Go to 38.5 , 11.3

Go upstairs. You will find 6/7 necrolords surrounding him, but you can clear them without aggroing Mezhen.
He's just like a necrolord so he's just a common mob (no special skills or high hp)

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Of Keys and CagesHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    The captain may not care, but from the little we know, the vrykul are conducting heinous rites in some sort of 'awakening' ritual up north in Gjalerbron. They're using living sacrifices to fuel their unholy rituals! <class>, you must put a stop to this!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In Service to the LightHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    Your service has been exemplary, <name>, but there is something that is troubling me: the Scourge. The Light cannot abide their presence, and neither shall we. I hope that it is not asking you too much, but I would have you return north to Gjalerbron and crush the unholy Scourge in that vile lair!
