We were out of time before, but now we're REALLY out of time. The ethereals are gonna beat us to the warehouse, but we might still be able to beat them to the Dark Heart. C'mon!
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.
- Evacuation Plan
We cannot let the ethereals find the Dark Heart before we do. Gazlowe needs to be informed. We must gather our forces and find the Dark Heart--quickly!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Get Our People Out
While Alleria looks for the Dark Heart, we need to look for the hostages. Here's hoping they're still safe. They left some ambushers behind, but we got the best of SI:7 on our side. You think you see one of them hidin', point them out to Renzik. He'll toss a smoke bomb.
