Completion
There will be no atonement for us,. We are forever damned to walk the earth as monsters. While the Lich King may have loosed his grip upon us, the specters of the past will forever haunt our memories.

We must make amends in the only way we know how: Death...

I ask you now to join me in Acherus as a Knight of the Ebon Blade. Together we will destroy the Lich King and end the Scourge.

Quest dialogue

 * Here is where I sacrificed everything to free my father. Now I come to destroy it...

During the battle, Mograine shout orders, and interact in the battle. Koltira Deathweaver flanks Darion's left, while Thassarian flanks his right, and Orbaz Bloodbane brings up the immediate rear. The event lasts for approximately ten minutes. Once you start the event, a five minute timer will count down until the battle begins.

Note: The second quote made by Maxwell Tyrosus only existed in the PTR, and does not trigger on the live servers. However, the voice work done for the quest is still present in the game.
