Objectives

Speak with Jaina in Forlorn Respite to learn what she knows about the Maw.

Description

Anduin insisted that our allies would come for us. I confess I had begun to doubt him.

I'm sure you have many questions. I'll do what I can to provide answers, but I'm afraid even after...

What has it been... weeks? Longer? Time loses all meaning in a place of such darkness.

Forgive me. Let me tell you what little I can.

Rewards

You will receive:

  • 11g 70s
  • 3,400 XP

Progress

I will tell you what I can.

Completion

I need time to recover after that battle. Thrall could use rest, too.

While we rest, perhaps you and Mograine can seek answers.

Notes

Speak with Jaina:

I know this... place... is a lot to take in.
Take a moment to gather yourself. When you are ready, I'll tell you what I know.
Gossip Tell me about this place.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Very well... where to begin?
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Denizens call this realm "the Maw." From what I have gathered, it was intended as a prison for the most foul, irredeemable souls that ever existed.
Thrall says: Something has changed. Pure, noble souls are being held captive here as well. They cry out in torment.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Indeed. And one of their tormentors--and ours--is Sylvanas Windrunner.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: It seems she has made a powerful ally. The shades whisper of someone called... the Jailer.
Projections of Mawsworn Guards, the Jailer, and Sylvanas appear.

Speak with Jaina again:

What answers do you seek?
Gossip Tell me more of the Jailer.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: The Jailer rules this realm. We know little about him, but it's clear he has taken a special interest in us.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: He has personally overseen our... treatment here.
Thrall says: We have endured countless torments. At times, it felt as if we were being tested. Though for what purpose, I cannot say.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Whatever this Jailer and the Banshee are planning, it won't end well... for any of us.
Projections of Baine and Mawsworn Harbingers appear. The Mawsworn are torturing Baine.

Continue speaking with Jaina:

What answers do you seek?
Gossip What about the others who were taken?
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: I caught glimpses of Baine and Anduin during my attempts to break free. They live... that's all I know for certain.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: But I have found no means of leaving the Maw. I can only manage to teleport short distances. This nightmare feels... inescapable.
Highlord Darion Mograine says: Countless souls are now pouring into this realm. But some have been here for untold ages. Perhaps one of them knows a way out.
Darion approaches a Tormented Soul.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: I can scarcely imagine the horrors such spirits have endured. I fear there's nothing left of them to save.
Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: They manifest as malevolent shades that wander the darkness. I doubt they'd willingly help us.
Projections of more Tormented Souls and a Malice Shadow appear.
Highlord Darion Mograine says: Knights of the Ebon Blade have ways to compel the dead to speak. If we seize one of them, we can extract its secrets.
Under level 50

Gossip I have heard this tale before. <Maw skip unavailable.> [Requires Level 50]

We're so close. Fight by my side and we will get through this together.
Gossip I understand.
