We heard the echo of the explosion from here. I presume you have found victory, but your solitary arrival suggests not all is well. What happened?

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the CorewayIsle of Dorn · Level 70-73

    We dealt a heavy blow to the nerubians. But Baelgrim... <Adelgonn pauses to compose herself.> He was infuriatingly rigid and we argued ceaselessly, but in the end... he was a defender of our people--all of them. Baelgrim sacrificed himself to vouchsafe the Isle of Dorn from the nerubians.
