Rewards13g 74s, 4,800 XP

Description

If we are to banish Ragnaros back into the Firelands, we will need to gain access to Sulfuron Spire. Only the most trusted members of the Twilight's Hammer will have been entrusted with such valuable information. Go search the Ascendant's Rise for any written tomes you might find. Foul as they are, we cannot waste the opportunity to learn about our enemy's weaknesses.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Death to the BroodmotherMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    We've located the matriarch's feeding grounds south of the Ascendant's Rise. She will be extremely angry to have lost one of her drakes. Place the skull there near the carcasses she devours. If she's anywhere in the vicinity, she will come out and attempt to exact revenge.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The GatekeeperMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    According to these tomes, one of Ragnaros' most powerful lieutenants serves as the sole gatekeeper to Sulfuron Spire. You won't be able to defeat him alone. Sound this horn when you engage in combat with Azralon and any of our forces in the vicinity will come to your aid. You must hurry, <name>.
