Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

The Mind's Eye is held by an ogre mage, in the Mosh'Ogg ogre mound just to the south. His name is Mai'Zoth. I know him from when the Darkspears dwelt in Stranglethorn - he is vicious, and his magic is strong. And if he has the Mind's Eye, then his magic will be stronger still. You must face Mai'Zoth and wrest from him the Mind's Eye. It is a perilous task, but it is the only hope we have of saving Yenniku.

    <Nezzliok speaks.> You have appeased myself and my chief, so I will tell you that which you seek to discover... Young Yenniku is lost to his clan. He was taken by the witchdoctor Zanzil the Outcast. Now Zanzil controls him, body and soul, and only the most potent magic could set him free.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Saving YennikuNorthern Stranglethorn · Level 10-30

    I have reshaped the Mind's Eye into a Soul Gem. Its purpose is twofold: you must use it to stun Yenniku, and once stunned place it upon his head to entrap his soul.
