Notes

Fly southeast to Mord'rethar's west end. There's a wagon on fire that provides excellent cover to use the bonus ability:

 Collaborator's Robes — Disguises the caster as a member of the Cult of the Damned for 30 min. Instant (30 sec cooldown)

All mobs in the area turn friendly and can be spoken with. Check out their gossip or not, then head inside the building. Steer clear of the Shadow Stalkers, who have true sight and will break the disguise.

At the west end, Herald Dalora, a Mawsworn kyrian is holding court before some Death's Disciples. Use the new bonus ability:

 Submit to Darkness — Kneel alongside the devoted.

Herald Dalora says: His power rising... his chains broken. The remaking has begun!

Herald Dalora says: The hour draws near when the Banished One shall reclaim what is his.

Herald Dalora says: Death comes for the soul of this world.

Herald Dalora says: Make ready! Feed the lives of the unworthy to the hungering Maw!

Dalora teleports away, followed by the disciples.
