Description
Obviously, the Black Prince isn't here. Trust me when I say he's not an easy one to find.
If I were you, I'd make my way to Blackrock Mountain. There's a terrace carved into its slopes, where Nefarian once made his lair.
Wrathion has been monitoring that place for a long time. Even if he's not there himself, you might find someone who knows where to look.
And <class>... it's clear you're not the only one searching for him. Watch your back.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 23 40
- 17,850 XP
- +250 reputation with Champions of Azeroth
Progress
My head is still spinning... they showed me... such terrible... tempting things...
Completion
Thank you. They... forced their way into my mind. I couldn't stop them from finding what they sought.
The Black Prince meant for you to have those pages. He was certain that you would need the knowledge within them.
Notes
On accept:
- Right says: It seems you're not the only one on Wrathion's trail. Which must be why he's taken so many precautions.
- Left says: Not even we know where he is. But he's been keeping an eye on Blackrock Mountain. Might be a good place to start.
- Left says: Watch your back. Whoever else is looking for him, I doubt they just want to chat.
Head to the entrance to Blackwing Descent, on the outside of Blackrock Mountain. There, a Blacktalon Watcher is being held captive by a Sleepless Interrogator and two Sleepless Operatives. Defeat them:
- Sleepless Interrogator says: [Shath'Yar] Hwr... whyrr...
- Blacktalon Watcher says: My head... they... reached into my mind...
- Sleepless Interrogator whispers: Too... late...
The watcher stumbles his way in the direction of the Meeting Stone. Speak with him:
- My mind... they saw into my mind. They know that the Black Prince expected you to come.
- I have failed him...
(Quest) You're safe now. Did Wrathion leave a message for me?- Blacktalon Watcher says: He... left these for you... Said to seek him out in Karazhan.
