Description

At the core of Animus is an artifact known as the Doomstone. One of its properties is an ability to absorb a great deal of energy.

This is how the cultists are trying to set off the explosion... by overloading the stone and amplifying the power through the elemental.

Bring me the Doomstone. For safe keeping, of course.

Why. The hell. Do we give this item to her? Especially as a Horde player. She effectively caused the death of one of the most beloved Horde leaders ever. That's common knowledge at this point. I understand needing her help to rid the zone of the Animus threat, but there's absolutely no reason to give her the stone at the end of it all.

I hope they explain this plot-hole. It certainly ended an awesome questing experience on a "wtf" note for me.

So apparently we give over 3 powerful tauren artifacts and a dark evil powerful weapon called the "Doomstone" to an evil tauren witch that murdered Cairne Bloodhoof and countless tauren in Thunder Bluff, and ya know...probably plans on destroying and reeking havoc on the world...

As long as I get my 1g 30s...
