Objectives
Detonate the Solar Core.
- Solar Core detonated
Description
The fight has taken us to Fandral's doorstep. His druids are channeling energies of the Firelands into a vessel called the Solar Core.
Should this vessel detonate on Azeroth, none of us will have a home to return to.
We need to strike at the Solar Core now, while it is still vulnerable. You can find the infernal device to the northeast.
Rewards
You will receive: [Mark of the World Tree] x2 and 9 40
Progress
If we do not stop it now, the Solar Core will only grow more powerful with each day.
Completion
It is destroyed? Good. I doubt this will deter Fandral for long, but we must gain every advantage we can muster.
Gains
You will receive:
- 69400 XP (or 16 54 at max level)
- +250 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal
Notes
Pick up the other dailies at the Forlorn Spire before heading out. While out and about, kill a Druid of the Flame and it will drop a 
[Dried Acorn] on the ground. It starts [35] The Mysterious Seed.
The Solar Core is found at [70.8, 38.2] the northeast end of the Widow's Clutch, at a camp called Wildflame Point. It is surrounded by four Druids of the Flame. Kill at least one, get close to the center taking care not to aggro the others — they have a large aggro radius — and blow the core. The explosion will launch the player 100 yards away to [65.9, 39.0] on top of a spire. Jump down, mount up and return to base.
