The Elementium Axe (Alliance)

The Elementium Axe is an Alliance-only quest for level 30-35 in Twilight Highlands. It is step 216 of 236 in the Twilight Highlands storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Twilight Highlands at 36.4, 65.9. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,800 experience and money.

Description

The Twilight cowards have captured and killed too many red dragons, but one yet lives. Do you remember Lirastrasza? She's shackled nearby and we're going to free her.

But first, we need something sharp enough to cut through her chains.

There's an old ettin named Blindeye the Guardian. He stands watch at the Altar of Ascension to the south.

He has a purely-wrought Elementium axe. I wonder if that's Cho'gall's "ultimate" weapon?

  • Spirit of the LochTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    I have no knowledge of any artifact that Cho'gall is crafting, but I think I know one that can help. Countess Verrall is the ancient spirit of Loch Verrall to the north. She has no love for the Twilight's Hammer, who have polluted her waters. Seek her for the wisdom that you seek.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Distract Them for MeTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    There are three candidates for Ascendancy that we need to eliminate: Dame Alys Finnsson, Master Klem, and Mia the Rose. I'd like for you to serve as my distraction. When the time is right, I'll step in and finish them off from behind. Whatever you do, <name>, do not underestimate them.
