Description

The influence of Twilight's Hammer reaches far and wide. They search ceaselessly for allies in their battle against us and they are recruiting the Dark Iron dwarves of Blackrock Depths to their cause.

Moira's grip on the Dark Irons is tenuous at best and more of her people fall away from her rule with each day. We must sabotage their recruitment efforts.

I want you to go into Domicile portion of Blackrock Depths and use this torch to burn the books that the Twilight's Hammer is distributing there.

This quest is kind of soloable, just get to BRD, take the elevator to the Domicile, then run around and click the books to burn them - its instant click.
You will probably die 3-4 times, but it takes less than 20 secs to get back in as the spirit healer is just outside BRD.

These rewards are also quite good at their level if you don't have a heirloom helmet for your alt(s). I also have no idea why the horde priests get race specific quests.
