• Darkmaster Gandling dealt with

Description

The Scholomance is one of the few Scourge holdouts remaining west of the Thondroril. The headmaster of Scholomance, a cultist by the name of Darkmaster Gandling, has made an appearance on the battlefield.

This will be his final mistake.

You will find Gandling in a square near the southern end of town. I want you to fight and weaken Gandling. I will join you to help finish him off.

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards

	[Belt of Lingering Corruption]			[Elimination Bracers]
	[Burden of Time]			[Gandling's Gloves]

You will also receive: 1 10

Progress

I will not rest until the Lich King's taint is lifted from Andorhal.

Completion

Excellently done, <name>. And now, with the leader of the Scourge forces eliminated from Andorhal, we bide our time.

Notes

On accepting the quest

Koltira Deathweaver says: Gandling is strong, but do not worry. I will join you shortly after you begin to fight him.

Encounter with Gandling

Darkmaster Gandling says: Prepare to die, <race>!

At low health, Gandling traps the hero within a shadow prison, leaving them helpless.

Darkmaster Gandling says: Your life is forfeit.

Koltira Deathweaver and Thassarian arrive and break the hero out of the prison. They then assist in finishing off Gandling.

Darkmaster Gandling says: Enough of this. The Cult of the Damned doesn't need Andorhal. This worthless city is yours to fight over.

Darkmaster Gandling teleports away from the battlefield.

Thassarian says: Koltira! I had heard rumors that you were here in Lordaeron.

Koltira Deathweaver says: You heard correctly, Thassarian. I wanted to give you a chance to kill me again.

Thassarian laughs.

Thassarian says: It looks like it may have to come to that.

Koltira Deathweaver says: Yes, it may... but not today. With the Scourge out of the way, I plan to pull my troops back and regroup.

Thassarian says: I see. Then I will do the same.

Thassarian says: But you must be aware, Koltira: we are brothers no longer. You are a member of the Horde now, and I of the Alliance.

Thassarian says: Eventually, we will fight this battle for Andorhal, and only one of us can walk off this battlefield victorious.

Koltira Deathweaver says: Yes, I know. And don't think I'll go easy on you.

Thassarian laughs.

Thassarian says: Very well. I look forward to it.

Koltira Deathweaver whispers: You are not to speak to ANYONE about the agreement that was made today, <name>. Consider this an order from your direct superior.
