Description

SI:7 is the espionage and intel branch of the Alliance. They are based out of Stormwind City and headed up by Master Mathias Shaw. As of late, they have been acting, shall we say, peculiar. I would like for you to send some of our people out to assess the situation. It might be nothing, but I am not fond of situations that I do not fully understand. If we are going to win this war against the Burning Legion, the last thing we need is for something wholly unexpected to occur.

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.

  • A Body of EvidenceLevel 10-45

    There is an urgent matter that requires your attention, <name>. The body of a woman with a knife in her back has turned up in the sewers. Normally, such a matter would be less than newsworthy... but this isn't your average cutthroat. It's an SI:7 operative!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Bloody TruthLevel 10-45

    We need to find out who is behind the assassination of Amber Kearnen. It won't be long before SI:7 realizes that their agent is MIA and comes sniffing around The Hall of Shadows. Here, take these stylish spy glasses and set them to scan for traces of hemoglobin.
