Return to the Seat of the Primus with the Pauldrons of Imperium.
- Pauldrons of Imperium returned to Primus statue [49.7, 54.7]
Description
Now we know who is responsible for the unrest in Maldraxxus.
If Kel'Thuzad has allied with the Banished One, then he wields greater power than anyone realizes.
We must lay siege to the House of Rituals, but we need time to prepare. Attacking without a flawless strategy will only ensure our defeat.
For now, return the pauldrons to the Seat of the Primus. I will meet you there.

Notes
Return to the Seat of the Primus and interact with the ghost pauldrons in front of the Stone Altar to trigger a cutscene:
- The Pauldrons of Imperium materialize on the shoulders of the Primus' statue.
- Vision of the Primus says: Enemies arise from without and within.
- Vision of the Primus says: Stand firm.
- Vision of the Primus says: Defend the realms of Death.
On the other side of the cutscene, Draka appears and walks up the stairs to her regular position on the middle of the platform.
- Baroness Draka says: You revealed the true enemy of Maldraxxus, Maw Walker. And now you shall restore these pauldrons to their rightful place.
- Baroness Draka says: We heed the words of the Primus! And together, we will fight to save the Shadowlands!
This concludes the "The Wages of Sin" chapter of the

Previous versions
- Beta description
- We have halted the operation--good. But I feel our work remains incomplete.
- To manage something of this nature, this "Kel'Thuzad" must possess unspeakable power. Certainly, the anima stores have granted him such, but...this subtlety...this manipulation...
- Return the mantle as I have instructed, <name>. We can decide our next move once we return to Maldraxxus.
- We must be cautious, but brave.
