If you're blind like me and didn't see the the quest, look at the Isle of Quel'danas map (left click zone map). Coords are ~64 / 29.20 for the entryway.

Walk in, take the immediate left and follow it to the big room ,up the stairs. Rommath is at the top.

Description

The Magicules, the orbs you see on the relic, were never meant to be severed from the Omnium. By tearing one out, Dar'Khan likely sent the artifact into a frenzied state before it shut down. Even if the Void Magicule is restored, the Omnium will need recalibrating. We will need Belo'vir's key-cipher, now my key-cipher, to do this. I will meet you at my study and we can recover it.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Void RevealsLevel 80-90

    After reclaiming Silvermoon, the Magisters torched Dar'Khan's personal study and dwellings within the city walls. I had thought I had found everything I needed the first time I searched this place, but now... It seems that Dar'Khan left some secrets. This portal will take us to them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Grand Magister's Key-CipherLevel 80-90

    After Belo'vir's death, I contemplated opening this vault. I talked myself out of it. A key for a shattered lock serves no purpose. And yet, even as Kael'thas tried to open it with his key, I couldn't help but wonder... It doesn't matter, <name>.
