Tell me about this proposal

You see, Thorim is not like these harpies. He's a worthy being of near godlike stature.

He served the titans as guardian of Ulduar and the Terrace of the Makers.

That is until his wife, Sif, was cowardly slain by his brother.

What happened then?

Thorim lost it. He lasted out against his most beloved allies, the frost giants.

That's one reason why to this day, this land is torn apart by the war between the Hyldnir and the Sons of Hodir... and why Thorim has exiled himself to the Temple of Storms.

You want me to take part in the Hyldsmeet to end the war?

What do I care if these she-wolves and the frost giants kill each other every day?

No, no... I want THorim to break out of his stupor and rally all his allies to retake Ulduar.

The world will be torn asunder if he fails to accomplish this!

And of course, I'll reward you appropriately.

Very well. I'll take part in this competition.

Description

Whether you've noticed or not, by defeating your first Hyldnir in hand-to-hand combat, you've entered the Hyldsmeet -- the great competition of Hyldnir against Hyldnir to determine who will rule by Thorim's side. The Hyldsmeet is the reason why I was imprisoned, for I sought to partake in the competition but was far too old and frail to be a match for the Hyldnir. If you're willing to listen, I've a proposal for you.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Is That Your Goblin?The Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    I trust that's the green little one you've been looking for. If I were you I'd step in before that Hyldnir splits him in half. You've arrived in the middle of the Hyldsmeet, so all challenges must be accepted by participants. There's nothing to stop you from taking your green friend's place.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Taking on All ChallengersThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Let's get you started. The good news is that by defeating Agnetta, you've earned yourself a spot in the next round of matches. The bad news is that all your opponents will also have defeated someone in the first round. Do not expect pushovers.
