Just go straight ahead and take the door to your left ( if your lucky , there is a rare mob guarding it).
just go straight to the back of the corridor and there is an open space with a stone in the middle, just touch it and be prepared to kill both mobs at once...

What to do

StorylineSearing Gorge, step 19 of 23

Description

Overseer Maltorius is in charge here, but he's not the only dwarf of power within the Slag Pit. Lathoric the Black and his horrifying golem, Obsidion, loom just down this corridor. Interfering with Lathoric's altar should summon both of them. Find it, then summon Lathoric and kill him. Report to Evonice Sootsmoker when you're finished.

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.

  • Sweet, Horrible FreedomSearing Gorge · Level 15-30

    Of course, we'll want to free as many slaves as we can while we're here. Most of them will likely join forces with us, anxious to fight against their captors. However, sometimes you will find that slaves are resistant to being freed. It's a strange phenomenon, often called "Durnholde Syndrome".

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Kill 'em With Sleep DeprivationSearing Gorge · Level 15-30

    It's a little known fact that dwarves, particularly of the Dark Iron variety, need rest! Lots of rest! Now I ask you; How can they sleep without pillows? Exactly, <name>, they can't. This is why you must steal their pillows. Once you've finished your cushion-thievery, talk with Taskmaster Scrange.
