Objectives

Learn from Merrix about the Council of Dornogal.

• Speak to Merrix

Description

I hate to admit it, but we have been caught unprepared by the nerubians.

Our processes focused on sustaining Dornogal and our declining population.

Stormward Baelgrim's stalwart pride has kept him and the Stormriders capable fighters, but they are already stretched thin, and they are not builders.

The Coreway's damage surpasses our ability to fix it.

But... that was not always so. I suppose if you wish to understand, you must learn more about us.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 28 9
• 10,400 XP

Progress

So much has been lost.

Completion

We must do something.

Notes

Speak with Merrix again:

We have never seen the likes of you before. The earthen are forbidden to leave the Isle.

 (Quest) Tell me about the Council of Dornogal.
 <Skip conversation> Tell me another time.

Should players not choose to skip, the images of the four wards appear in the center of the room: Baelgrim the Stormward, Merrix the Councilward, Speaker Brinthe, and Adelgonn the Stoneward.

Merrix says: The titans uplifted four wards the Councilward, the Stormward, the Stoneward, and the High Speaker...

Merrix says: ...to keep the Edicts and build the Coreway and its fortress, Dornogal.

Merrix says: But the titans left and the machines stopped. The Unbound abandoned the Edicts, and the High Speaker retreated to the Ringing Deeps.

Merrix says: And now the Machine Speakers are cut off from us and we have no means to fix the Coreway.

On complete:

Moira Thaurissan says: Then it seems long past time ye stood united. We need to find this Adelgonn, rebuild ye Coreway...

Moira Thaurissan says: ...and take care o' the nerubians once and fer all.
