To the... Past?

To the... Past? is a quest for level 40-70 in Thaldraszus. It is step 8 of 20 in the Big Time Adventurer storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Azmerloth at 59.8, 66.2. It rewards 1,200 experience and money.

Description

It is regrettable that we could not stabilize Chronormu, but there is another potential location where we may be able to catch her and bring an end to her fall through time.

<Nozdormu frowns.>

The glimpses of this timeline past are... strange. Even among some of the visions I have witnessed in my life.

Be on your guard, <name>. I am uncertain what you will face, but it is powerful and... oddly familiar.

What's interesting is that this quest takes you to an instanced version of Northrend, not the Dragon Soul dungeon like you would expect. This is evident by the missing Old God's boss generals areas and that Wyrmrest Temple still has its crown on top. You can enter Wyrmrest Temple, but sadly, there are no neat easter eggs or other fun things like murloc versions of the aspects. Just Horde/Alliance on Deathwing murloc action. I also noticed that when you do go into Wyrmrest, it sends you to a phased version of that instance where everything on the battlefield disappears. If you run around back of the temple, you see some glitched land objects and it eventually teleports you back out front.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the PresentThaldraszus · Level 40-70

    This timeline is dark and chaotic. The disruption here has been severe. I shall remain in this timeline a moment more to help sort out what remaining ripples may appear. Return to Nozdormu. He will want to know of our success, even if it was less complete than we would like.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Murloc MotesAzmerloth · Level 40-70

    An alternate timeline born from murlocs??! Forgive my selfishness, but would you obtain a few stray motes of temporal energy while you locate Ambassador Chronomu? Just walk into them and your staff should do the rest. I will examine the data later.
