Objectives

Set the North, South, East, and West Sentry Towers on fire by using the  [Torch of Retribution] inside each of the buildings.

  • Western Tower Ablaze
  • Northern Tower Ablaze
  • Eastern Tower Ablaze
  • Southern Tower Ablaze
  •  [Torch of Retribution] (provided)

Description

Listen well, <name>. While the four towers can never be destroyed, you can use the torch of retribution to set them ablaze for a very long period of time: A fire that no element or force can subdue.

While they are ablaze, no guard or sentry unit can inhabit the watch posts and thus, their first line of defense is nullified.

You must enter each tower and use the  [Torch of Retribution] within their fortifications. Beware the elite sentry units of the Dark Irons, <name>.

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards

You will also receive:

  • 2g 30s
  • 11000 XP (or 66s at level 70)

Progress

Are you lost, <name>?

Completion

It is glorious! Is it not glorious master?

Notes

Although the quest refers to the Dark Iron Sentries being elite, they no longer are.

Velarok the Deceiver is talking about "the molt" that is found in a chest that is spawned when you hand in the quest. Only people who completed this quest can open the spawned chest. You right click the chest at the bottom of the squire's feet named "Hoard of the Black Dragonflight" which starts N [50] Trinkets..., inside the chest there is a  [Black Dragonflight Molt], something that Cyrus Therepentous in Burning Steppes wants.

Upon completion
Velarok - Velarok the Deceiver you can call him now, reveals himself to be a drake of the black dragonflight.
Velarok the Deceiver says: Glorious, indeed, Maltrake. It looks as if my plan worked perfectly. Wouldn't you say so, mortal?
Velarok the Deceiver lets loose a reptilian laugh... at least you think it's a laugh.
Velarok the Deceiver says: You would not have helped the legion of Blackrock had we just asked for your assistance, now would you?
Squire Maltrake says: What will we do with them, master? They are of no use to us anymore.
Velarok turns to face Maltrake.
Velarok the Deceiver says: SILENCE FOOL!
Velarok the Deceiver says: They will live of only to see the fruits of their labor: the destruction and chaos that will surely ensue as the legion of Blackrock invades the gorge.
Velarok the Deceiver says: I leave you now, mortals. Alive and with these trinkets. Maltrake! Present them with the trinkets!
Squire Maltrake says: Right away, master!
Velarok the Deceiver begins to flap his massive wings faster. He is preparing for flight.
Velarok the Deceiver says: Oh yes, the molt - do not lose it. There are those of my kin in the Burning Steppes that would craft items that only the molt of the black dragonflight could fortify.
Velarok the Deceiver yells: The legion of Blackrock comes, dwarflings! We shall scorch the earth and set fire to the heavens. None shall survive...
Velarok turns and flies off toward the gorge.
