Description
Azeroth's ley lines are being redirected to the Nexus. The influx of arcane energies is tearing a rift between dimensions. I cannot stop it, but I've discovered a way to slow it down. Take this and activate it near the forming rift.
Getting there
Inside the dungeon: The Nexus
In order to reestablish his dominance over magic, the blue Dragon Aspect, Malygos, has launched a ruthless campaign to sever the link between mortals and the arcane energies coursing through Azeroth. To this end, his blue dragonflight is redirecting the ley lines of the world to the Nexus, Malygos' towering lair.
Bosses in the Adventure Guide, in order: Commander Stoutbeard, Commander Kolurg, Grand Magus Telestra, Anomalus, Ormorok the Tree-Shaper, Keristrasza.
Entrance: The Nexus, Borean Tundra at 27.5, 25.9.
