Description

When fighting someone who has escaped the grasp of Bwonsamdi, as Zalazane has, it is best to bring weapons that can hurt him. In Darkspear Hold you will find the Glaive of Vol'jin. It should have enough bond with Vol'jin's spirit to aid us in this fight.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Broken BargainLevel 50

    These mindless undead just keep coming. They be far stronger than they were the last time Zalazane walked this world. Please, help us drive these undead back.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Vengeance for Vol'jinLevel 50

    If we mean to destroy Zalazane then we gonna need something that can damage that spirit. Da Glaive of Vol'jin might be what we need to do this. Zalazane be hovering near where he fell so many years ago. Rokhan and Talanji have already gone to face him.
