Objectives

Meet with various earthen citizens in Dornogal.

Description

I am Merrix, Councilward of Dornogal.

I appreciate your aid--especially in light of the fraught nature of your arrival. You must forgive Stormward Baelgrim. Being suspicious is part of his directive.

A formal discussion of our situation is warranted. If you wish to strike back at the nerubians, as we do, meet us at the Foundation Hall. Baelgrim and I need to review the data so far.

In the meantime, you are my guest. Take my ring. It will allow you to access Dornogal's amenities.

Rewards

You will receive:

  • 28g 9s
  • 10,400 XP

Progress

The attack seems concentrated on the Coreway. The rest of the city is secure, but we should ready ourselves for anything.

Completion

Baelgrim's vigilance has kept us safe all these years, but today we need help.

Notes

On accept:

Merrix says: Welcome to Dornogal. You are the first outlander to visit in years!
Merrix and Baelgrim walk outside, then mount up and fly across the Coreway in the direction of the Forgegrounds.

This quest serves as the tour of Dornogal. Northwest of the Forgegrounds on the rise, Breem, the flight master, is speaking with Stormrider Meirand.

Breem says: --the entire isle is under attack. Praise the titans you are safe, Meirand.

Breem has gossip:

I have heard of nerubian attacks all over the island from Golgrin's Reach to Unbound territory.

What does it all mean?

Gossip (Quest) <Introduce yourself with Councilward's Signet.>

Breem says: Were it not for the Stormriders, the city may have fallen. We need the Council's direction.

Meirand has gossip too:

I have served Stormward Baelgrim for many cycles, but this is our first under attack.

Speaker Brinthe even says that she has no written record of an attack, but of course our only records are from after we lost access to the Archive.

But we Stormriders have prepared for this very moment, every moment, of our time online. We will not lose any more ground to the nerubians.

Ronesh, Anduin Wrynn, and Magni Bronzebeard in Stonelight Rest

Immediately north is Stonelight Rest, and Ronesh, the innkeeper, is inside. Speak with him:

Another outlander from the the beach, are you? A few of your sector, Anduin and Magni, arrived earlier. They are downstairs.

News of your aid to us has traveled through the city. I welcome you and your allies, and will help you as best I can.

Although... if you share the same food requirements as your compatriots, your choices are limited. What we consume is upalatable[sic] to you--gems, ore, and cinderbrew.

This inn was created because we did have travelers like you once come from below.

But, I can see what I have.

Gossip (Quest) <Introduce yourself with Councilward's Signet.>

Ronesh says: Beds are scarce. We have resorted to using the Proscenium as a field hospital.

Inside, Anduin Wrynn and Magni Bronzebeard are at a table with some food on it:

Anduin Wrynn says: So many injured...
Magni and Anduin

Anduin has gossip:

We're lucky to find respite here.

From what the earthen have said, the nerubians have been their enemy for millennia--but haven't come to the Isle of Dorn as far back as any of them can remember.

The nerubians have caught all of us unprepared.

Gossip <Stay awhile and listen.>

Anduin Wrynn says: Magni, how are you feeling?
Magni Bronzebeard says: How I look, to be honest. The shine has worn off of me. And of this speaker nonsense.
Anduin Wrynn says: Nonsense? I thought... Being the speaker was...
Magni Bronzebeard says: An honor? Aye, until it wasn't. A song everywhere and nary a peep for me...
Magni Bronzebeard says: And now, dragged to the ends of the earth... and my family too!
Anduin Wrynn says: I... can't offer you any comfort. I admit that I...
Magni Bronzebeard says: You're in the same boat, aren't you, lad? But the Light seems a fairer master... I doubt it has left you truly, Anduin.
Anduin Wrynn says: I could say the same of you and Azeroth. I don't think it's you... I think there is much we don't know.
Magni Bronzebeard says: That may be. But if I were you, I'd enjoy my break from being a king and savior of the world. Figure yourself out. Rest.
Anduin Wrynn says: My relationship with the Light is not like yours to Azeroth. But... I can see what you mean.

As does Magni:

The battle that started on Dalaran is far from over, <name>! An' here I am already sidelined by me injuries--for now.

I'm lucky ye came to me aid when ye did! An' that the earthen showed up.

Not sure I trust 'em. Especially that Baelgrim. He seems uppity to me. No respect for me or Moira...

<Magni winces in pain.>

But if they will help us with the nerubians... we have tae give them a chance.

Gossip <Stay awhile and listen.>

Magni Bronzebeard says: These earthen. They're a funny lot. Odd traditions. Superstitions.
Anduin Wrynn says: What... do you mean?
Magni Bronzebeard says: Titans, Edicts... Thraegar...
Anduin Wrynn says: Some of them have been calling me Arathi. Like the ancient human empire. I... wonder how they know of it.
Magni Bronzebeard says: Aye. I heard that too.
Magni Bronzebeard says: I don't know what to make o' it. The earthen are also an ancient people. They might just be rememberin' ghosts.
Anduin Wrynn says: But it seems like the Arathi were here--recently. Why would the earthen have an inn with proper food and beds if they don't need them?
Magni Bronzebeard says: Do ye think the Arathi are here somewhere in Khaz Algar?
Anduin Wrynn says: I don't see how. But... it bears investigating.

Outside, Rannida starts N [70-73] Crossroads Plaza. Just northeast, Brann Bronzebeard has taken over what's now Delver's Headquarters with Sir Finley Mrrgglton, Reno Jackson, and a number of Reliquary Researchers and Expedition Scouts. Speak with Brann:

Ah, the adventure of exploring the unknown!

There's nothin' like it, eh <name>?

Gossip (Quest) You made it, Brann! What's going on here?

Brann Bronzebeard says: I'm not about tae leave the Isle of Dorn unexplored! I have a reputation tae uphold.

Head north into Foundation Hall, and speak with Auditor Balwurz past the four thrones.

During development, Baelgrim and Merrix are having a conversation on their thrones:

Baelgrim says: Attacks continue across the isle. We cannot respond to them all.
Merrix says: Nor can we rebuild the Coreway without help. The Unbound--
Baelgrim says: They broke their oaths. We do not need them.
