Set Them Free

Set Them Free is a quest for level 8-45. It is step 4 of 21 in The Key to Defeating the Legion storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Mardum, the Shattered Abyss at 38.8, 60.6. It rewards 6,150 experience and money.

Description

Cyana went down to the Molten Shore. She was going to help some of the demon hunters who came in through the gateway ahead of us. Instead, she got herself into trouble.

This inquisitor revealed they're being held prisoner by some new type of demon called a 'jailer'. The thing sucks the souls out of its victims. I doubt they can hold out much longer.

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.

  • Enter the Illidari: CoilskarLevel 8-45

    The next gateway's down on the Molten Shore. Our Coilskar forces are waiting at the Black Temple on the other side. Personally, I wouldn't have chosen to bring our naga allies. But, their leader did swear fealty to Lord Illidan. I suppose we'll see.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Eye On the PrizeLevel 8-45

    This demon has proved less than useful. I have been using the Scythe of Souls on it, but so far, it has resisted my inquiries. We will see how long that lasts. I have a different idea... There is a fresh inquisitor demon ahead.
