What to do

StorylineVashj'ir, Abyssal Depths, step 32 of 43
Rewards13g 74s, 4,800 XP

Description

L'ghorek is the ancient that rests upon the shelf across from us. It is being controlled and its life energies slowly consumed by something immense beneath us. There is a cave known as the Undershell down below L'ghorek. In that cave are three powerful ogre magi that are maintaining a ritual connecting the thing below with the ancient. You must kill these three to disconnect L'ghorek.
