TheWoWDBAs the quest says the explosives are around the tower; don't go inside of it or to the top if you don't want a certain death.

Description
This tower was out of cannon range, so I thought we'd blow it up the old-fashioned way - in person. We set all the main charges but the guards fought us back before we could arm the detonators. {name}! Get up there and arm the three detonators we placed around the base of the tower. Those things are wired into a pack of thermals I set up along the spine... It'll be some show!
