Description
The Black Harvest archives contain an immeasurable amount of magical knowledge that has been collected from various sources over time. It's reasonable to think that somewhere among the countless scrolls that we'll find something to aid us in our mission to rescue the remaining council members. The search may be exhausting, but it is necessary if we plan to rebuild and face the Burning Legion.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- An Unlikely Ally
Channeling the demonic gateway will require the assistance of someone with intimate knowledge of the Burning Legion. I know of such a warlock, though I imagine her blood still boils upon hearing my name. It might be best if you are the one to request her help.
