What to do

StorylineUldum, step 28 of 101
RewardsVir'naal Cleaver, Vir'naal Guardsman's Axe, Hamatep Legguards, 10g 30s 50c, 3,600 XP

Description

I have devoted my life to serving the King. That service is unrivaled in importance by anything... with one exception: my son. Tahet was captured by Neferset sentries. They claim my son was trespassing upon their territory. Phaoris is attempting to negotiate his release... but I fear for the worst. If you were to find Tahet, I would pledge my vote to you. I do not know where they take the prisoners, but I've seen the guards consult maps to guide them through the thick vegetation.

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.

Reputation: Ramkahen +150

The cat-like people of Ramkahen are the descendants of the Tol'vir, guardians of Uldum. Though they've lost their stone bodies, protecting the secrets of the titans is still a part of their rigid tradition.

Reputation group: Cataclysm.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Vizier's VoteUldum · Level 30-35

    Getting Vizier Tanotep to go against my brother's wishes is going to be extremely difficult. His very position is based on enforcing the will of Phaoris. I've had little luck making the case for open war against Neferset. Nevertheless you must speak to him.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Neferset PrisonUldum · Level 30-35

    Hieroglyphs depicting a chained Tol'vir mark the southeastern corner of the map. Perhaps Tahet was brought there when he was imprisoned.
