When you enter into the Sunwell you will be faced towards the ramp going down. You will want to turn around facing the "entrance" where you were ported in. You will then see the gold figure of yourself standing in the center of a carpet with a sun on it.

Description

The flame of the lantern dims. Your final task is to rekindle it. In order to do so, you must walk one remaining path. While we are fortunate to hold the Sunwell once again, we must always remember that it was yet another part of us that Arthas took away... and that our late prince was forced to find us a new way of life. Enter the Sunwell Plateau, and witness its fall.

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.

    While the monument here was intended to honor the fallen members of the Shattered Sun, it quickly took on a second meaning for the sin'dorei. It was not far from here that we lost one of our greatest heroes: Anasterian Sunstrider, the last king of Quel'Thalas.
