Description

Are you familiar with how the Void elves joined the Alliance?

It began with Alleria Windrunner finding out about a blood elf named Umbric.

He and his followers were banished from Silvermoon City for researching void magic.

Alleria believed she could convince Umbric and his followers to join the Alliance and prevent the void from corrupting them.

It all began when she opened up a portal to go into the Ghostlands...

Okay, at first, dont go out of Embassy, Alleria will open a portal for both of you.
After passing through the portal, find three outcasts across the zone:


  • Umbric's Notes - Sanctum of the Moon - 33.6 34.3

  • Umbric's Notes - Andilien Estate - 46.8 55.1

  • Umbric's Notes - Dawnstar Spire - 79.6 19.8


Notes can be found inside building on tables, except Dawnstar Spire.
Dawnstar Spire - take the path up, use the console on balcony,
then take the path up again to the top of spire.

After you accept the quest use the portal to teleport to Ghostlands.

As of 12.0 the map of Ghostlands is not available, so use the following TomTom commands to find the book locations.

/way #95 33.6 34.5 Umbric's Notes - Sanctum of the Moon
/way #95 46.8 55.1 Umbric's Notes - Andilien Estate
/way #95 79.6 19.4 Umbric's Notes - Dawnstar Spire

You need to pick them up in order. The last one is at the top of the Dawnstar Spire, after you use the console to teleport to the upper spire, follow the path on the left.
