This is the questline for the [race=1] Heritage armor.
For this questline you must have a human at level 50+ who is exalted with Stormwind.
The first quest popped up after login (but just in the quest tracker, no quest window) and wants us to meet [npc=198884] in Stormwind. If you didn't get the quest, try to find it at the Stormwind Embassy in the northwest.


  1. An Urgent Matter - meet [npc=198884] behind the castle in Stormwind

  2. An Unlikely Informant - meet him again in the basement of the inn in Goldshire, Elwynn Forest

  3. A Window to the Past - talk to him (cinematic)

  4. Rotten Old Memories - travel to Morgan's Vigil in the Burning Steppes and talk to [npc=9563]. Find 4 pieces of journals at /way 62.26 63.95 Cave entrance

  5. Looking for Something Specific - return to Goldshire

  6. The New Clessington Estate - travel to the west of Duskwood /way 10.03 55.43 entrance, upstairs and talk to [npc=199536]. Leave the building and talk to her

  7. Misdeeds in Moonbrook - travel to Westfall

  8. A Hungry Heritage - enter /way 42.52 71.58 and go to the marked area. Open your big map to make it easier

  9. Betrayal of the Brotherhood - escape from the underground (north). Use extra button [spell=397607] to make it faster

  10. To Northshire - travel to Northshire (in the north of Goldshire)

  11. Knock It Off! - kill and loot the 4 marked enemies
    What's Their Problem? - kill enemies to fill the bar

  12. The Clessington Will - enter the Abbey and click the barrier. Click extra button Will to Survive, kill the enemies and defeat [npc=199006]

  13. Will to Survive - pick up [item=204214] and give it to Master Mathias Shaw. Click extra button Will to Survive. Kill [npc=199008]

  14. Go with Honor, Friend - return to Stormwind at the main entrance. Talk to [npc=198884] and go to [npc=65153]. Click extra button [spell=398747] while standing in the light
    - turn in, get your [spell=399752] and the title [title=760]

The NPC dialogue that goes along with this quest:

Spoiler
Upon perusing [item=204063], [npc=198883] responds in an overly-sweet voice... with sarcasm dripping from every word.

Vanessa VanCleef says: Oh goodness! Could it be that there's a corrupt noble causing trouble in Stormwind? What a surprise!

Master Mathias Shaw says: The House of Nobles has seen great strides in rooting out corruption, since Anduin's reign. I've overseen much of it myself, Vanessa.

Vanessa VanCleef says: Well, clearly it wasn't enough.

Vanessa heads off, fading into the shadows as she heads back up the stairs of the Lion's Pride Inn.

Some time later, the player arrives at the "new" Clessington estate - a decrepit old building in Raven Hill in Duskwood. A seemingly-agitated [npc=198912] is encountered on the second floor.

Cecilia Clessington says: What was my father thinking? This place is a disaster. We'll never turn a profit.

She does not appear to notice the player until they ask her, "What do you know about the Drakefire Amulet?" Unfortunately, Cecilia is unable to get a single word out before her father's attendants begin to attack.

[npc=198966] says: That's none of your business!

Cecilia Clessington says: Attendants, stop! What are you doing?

Clessington Attendant says: We answer to your father, not you!

Cecilia Clessington says: Curses! I knew something wasn't right. Let's get out of here, stranger!

The player escorts [npc=199536] out of the broken-down manor, fighting their way past several [npc=198920]s.

Cecilia Clessington says: This way! Just--oh!

Cecilia stops short at the sight of [npc=198883] leaning against the wall just outside.

Vanessa VanCleef says: Thanks for doing all the work, <name>. I figured you wouldn't want me in your way. Now, who is this?

Cecilia Clessington says: I am Cecilia Primrose Clessington the Second, at your service. Now, what has happened with the Drakefire Amulet?

<Tell Cecilia that the Drakefire Amulet has been stolen.>

Cecilia Clessington says: I should have known. My father just sent me here to get me out of his way.

Cecilia Clessington says: He's been raving about the Drakefire Amulet and "restoring our family's glory" for years! I try to reason with him, but he doesn't listen. Sometimes his obsession... scares me.

Cecilia Clessington says: If the amulet has been stolen, I'm certain it was his doing. And I'd wager he took it to Moonbrook, where he's been off "doing business".

Description

Excellent, {name}. Finally, something we can work with. Count Clessington is a member of the House of Nobles and a powerful mage. He has fallen on hard times since Anduin cracked down on corruption in Stormwind. I would not put it past him to have something to do with this. He recently purchased an old manor in Duskwood. I will contact my sources and see what other information I can find. You and Vanessa should go to the manor and investigate.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Looking for Something SpecificLevel 50-90

    <Ragged John blinks blearily up at you.> So ye took down that ol' worg, didye? Well aren't ye the biggest strongest human I seen since ol' Windsor. <Ragged John sighs.> ...Well? What're ye still doing here? Go take what ye found to whoever sent ye here in the first place!

    Moonbrook? What is this Count Clessington doing at my home?! It can't be anything good. I'll signal Shaw. <Vanessa glances at Cecilia Clessington.> She might make for a good hostage. Let's bring the rich girl, too. Meet us there.
