Objectives

Find the Mawsworn presence at the Circle of Thought.

• Culprit confronted^{[47.51, 62.14]}

Description

Something about this doesn't sit right with me. From what you reported, this seems like intentional sabotage from within our ranks... or the work of more dreadlords.

If dreadlords are involved, then the obelisk may be at risk! Get to it--if we linger on this it may be too late!

Rewards

You will receive:

• 51 48
• 10,200 XP
• +200 reputation with The Enlightened
•  [Emblem of Renown]

Progress

Time is of the essence here.

Completion

Mal'ganis^[sic]...

We are losing this race.

Notes

Mal'Ganis

Jaina and Baine

Atop the platform in the Circle of Thought, standing in front of the obelisk, a strange sight awaits: an exact doppelganger of the player character, with the same appearance, name, and title. The only difference is that they're an elite Demon with a monstrous amount of health. On aggro, they speak with a familiar voice:

<Name> says: Surprised?

At 98% health:

<Name> says: If I truly replaced you, would anyone notice?

At 94% health, Mal'Ganis drops the disguise and assumes his true form. At 88% health, Jaina and Baine show up at the bottom of the ramp leading to the platform, but Mal'Ganis keeps fighting the player.

Baine Bloodhoof says: <Name>, it seems you could use some assistance.

Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: Mal'Ganis! I should have known you were meddling in this.

Mal'Ganis says: Ah, Lady Proudmoore. A pity you did not come sooner--but I have stalled long enough for Zovaal's 'champion'. Farewell.

Mal'Ganis disappears in a cloud of bats.

Turn in to Jaina. On completion:

Jaina gasps.

Lady Jaina Proudmoore says: The champion Mal'Ganis was speaking of must be Anduin!
