Rewards:

Objectives

Raise Nazgrim as a Death Knight.

• Nazgrim raised

Description

General Nazgrim was one of the finest warriors our world has known, and his loyalty was unsurpassed... even for an orc.

He deserves the peace of death, but this world cries out to be saved. The time for rest is over...

Come, Deathlord... let us welcome Nazgrim into the arms of the damned.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 15 40
• 15,050 XP

Progress

General Nazgrim will make a fine Death Knight.

Completion

Well done, Deathlord. One of the Horde's greatest generals in life now serves you in undeath as your first horseman!

Notes

Quest accept

Thassarian says: It is time, my lord. Do what must be done.

Move towards the center of the graveyard and use the Raise Horseman extra button.

Raise Nazgrim

Thassarian says: Nazgrim, your Deathlord calls! Feel the icy grip of your master and rise once more!

Nazgrim is pulled to the surface in a kneeling position. He takes his first deep breath in undeath.

Nazgrim says: I live again... How long has it been since I tasted death?

Thassarian says: Long enough, my friend. The Burning Legion has returned and you have been called to the battle.

Nazgrim stands.

Nazgrim says: Say no more. I will sever their heads from their bodies...

Nazgrim summons a [Death Gate] as he speaks and steps through.

Thassarian says: Indeed you shall, general. Indeed you shall...

Use Nazgrim's Death Gate to return to Acherus: The Ebon Hold.

For Alliance players, it will be more time-consuming to get to Durotar than for Horde players. The shortest way is probably to teleport to Stormwind City and then take the portal to Mount Hyjal. The closest Alliance flight point is Forest Song in Ashenvale.
