Wasn't available for lvl 13 Troll Monk, only next one The Truth of the Grave
Not sure exactly when the quest givers were changed here, but the quest is now only offered by Shadow Priest Sarvis, not the class trainers. I suppose the quest description text would otherwise look a bit odd, as if Novice Elreth were serving all the class trainers in addition to Sarvis. #covfefe

Description
Why don't you go speak with my novice, Elreth? She serves me, and will have some tasks to which you can apply your new abilities.
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.
Getting there
Horde flight points closest to the quest’s turn-in marker on Deathknell:
- Forsaken High Command, Silverpine Forest
- Forsaken Rear Guard, Silverpine Forest
- Brill, Tirisfal Glades
Straight-line distances in yards between the quest’s own map markers (QuestPOI) and the client’s flight-point positions (TaxiNodes); flight paths and terrain are not modelled.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Scourge on our Perimeter
If you're going to be an asset to the Forsaken, you need to learn how to fight. And there's no better target than the Scourge minions that continue to pester us. The wretched ghouls and Rattlecage skeletons that roam the north and to the east are former troopers of the fallen Scourge.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Truth of the Grave
Earlier on, I saw a young Forsaken woman running towards the old inn. She was screaming for her life, pleading to be taken back home. Not all of us are as resolute as others, <name>. Even so, we must accept our fate as undead if we are to rise up against those that would put us down.
