Notes

Speaking with Maiev
Gossip (Quest) Let's put a stop to this, Warden.
Maiev Shadowsong says: Stay close and be silent, <name>.
Maiev Shadowsong says: I will shroud us from their eyes.
Maiev Shadowsong says: Arko'narin, mage, stay with our champion.
Arko'narin Starshade says: As you command, Warden.
Lysander Starshade gives you a nod.

Arko'narin and Lysander follow the adventurer, as Maiev goes forward. Follow her. When near her, the adventurer has the Warden's Vigilance buff. In case you distance from Maiev:

  • Maiev Shadowsong says: Are you looking to get caught, killed, or tortured? Get over here.
  • Maiev Shadowsong says: Do not ruin our mission, <name>.
  • Maiev Shadowsong says: What do you think you're doing, <name>?
  • Maiev Shadowsong says: Watch your footing, champion.
Passing the tunnel into the first chamber
Lysander Starshade says: Are you all right, Nari?
Arko'narin Starshade says: Yes. I just... I remember this place well.
Lysander Starshade says: I'm sorry it's been spoiled for you. Mother loved it here, didn't she?
Arko'narin Starshade says: It's not... it's fine, Lysander. Let's just go.
Maiev Shadowsong says: Keep your eyes sharp, Arko'narin.
Approaching the braziers
Maiev Shadowsong points at the nearby Felflame Brazier.

Enemies include Hel'nurathian Felmaws, Hel'nurathian Imps, Jaedenar Warriors, Hel'nurathian Felguard, Hel'nurathian Conjurors, and Hel'nurathian Tricksters.

Attacking the enemies
Arko'narin Starshade says: I will make them regret returning here.
Arko'narin Starshade says: They'll never see it coming.
Approaching the cages
Maiev Shadowsong says: Is this where they held you?
Arko'narin Starshade says: Yes. Over there... in those cages.
Lysander Starshade says: Wait--Nari, this is where you were captured? I didn't know--we never should have come back here.
Maiev Shadowsong says: I have felt the walls of confinement close in as well, Arko'narin.
Maiev Shadowsong says: But you are free, now. Your path is your own. That it led you to the wardens is a boon to the kaldorei, and to me.
Arko'narin Starshade says: Thank you, Warden. That means a lot.

In the cages are dead Slain Sentinels. Proceed further into the tunnels.

Lysander Starshade says: Nari... I'm sorry. Why didn't you tell me what this place really was?
Arko'narin Starshade says: Because I do not need you worrying over me. Come on.
Lysander Starshade says: ...let's go, champion.
Past the room with candles
Lysander Starshade says: Warden... do you have any siblings?
Maiev Shadowsong says: Have you not heard of Jarod Shadowsong?
Lysander Starshade says: My apologies, history was never my strongest subject.
Maiev Shadowsong says: Do not apologize. There were many days where I suspect he would have appreciated being forgotten.
Maiev Shadowsong says: He was not as... outspoken as you. Nor was he keen to lead. But lead us he did--to victory. Long ago.

Proceed to the bottom.

Maiev Shadowsong says: Hush now. We have found our prey.
