Objectives

Travel to Xylem's Tower within Bear's Head in Azshara.

Description

The Focusing Iris has been stolen from the Dalaran Vaults! The thief was a mage of some skill, but we've been unable to track him.

Fortunately, the thief dropped a note from his master, addressing him as one of his "apprentici." I know of only one mage who uses that particular pluralization - Archmage Xylem.

I'll need you to investigate. In Azshara you will find his tower where he trains his apprentices. Go there, and see what Xylem is up to.

Specialization: Arms Warrior

Rewards

You will receive: 1 94

Completion

So someone stole the Focusing Iris and you suspect Xylem might be the culprit? You may be right.

It is no secret that the archmage has been seeking artifacts of late. However, after the discovery of an ancient grimoire in the Legashi ruins, Xylem has become... unstable. I fear the grimoire may be stealing his mind.

I can help you gain audience with the archmage. With any luck, you can reclaim the Iris peacefully.

Gains

• 1,650 XP

Notes

If your character is Horde, take the portal to Orgrimmar. If Alliance, take the portal to Stormwind City and use the portal to Mount Hyjal at the Eastern Earthshrine.
