Progress[]
Yes?
Completion[]
I hope that Wrathion's expertise can lead us to the Old God.
We have precious little else to go on otherwise.
Notes[]
- Upon accept
- Valeera Sanguinar says: <Name>, I must speak with you at once. It seems we have a new ally in the fight against N'Zoth.
Speak with Valeera:
- I've come bearing word from Stormwind Keep.
- The Black Prince has returned, and together with the Speaker they hope to root out N'Zoth where he hides.
Tell me what you saw.
A cinematic plays:
Visions of N'Zoth - Intro Cinematic
- Outside Stormwind Keep, two figures, one of which is Magni Bronzebeard, are seen approaching.
- Anduin Wrynn says: You mean to tell me none of your spies have returned?
- Anduin Wrynn says: N'Zoth is out there and we need answers, now!
- Matthias Shaw says: We are doing all we can.
- Matthias Shaw says: Sir Magni is coming, along with a new... advisor. He claims to have information for us.
- Anduin Wrynn says: Oh, by the Light... a new advisor.
- A throat is heard clearing. Anduin looks up to see Magni Bronzebeard enter, with Wrathion behind him.
- Anduin Wrynn says: Wrathion...
- Anduin rises from the throne and walks towards Wrathion.
- Wrathion says: Anduin! It's been so long!
- Anduin punches Wrathion in the face, making him stagger back. Magni looks between the two of them.
- Magni Bronzebeard says: Oh, dragons...
- Wrathion says: I suppose I deserved that.
- Anduin Wrynn yells: Oh, you deserve more than that! My father is dead because of you!
- Wrathion says: And my father is dead because of the Old Gods.
- Magni Bronzebeard says: Lad, he's come to help us.
- Anduin glares at Wrathion, who just smiles. Later, outside in the garden, Anduin and Wrathion are walking together, with Magni and Baine Bloodhoof behind them.
- Wrathion says: Neltharion the Earth-Warder was once the protector of Azeroth. But N'Zoth turned a noble mind into madness and now, my father is only remembered as Deathwing.
- Wrathion says: And as I haven't the least desire to share that fate, I've been studying how to avoid it.
- Anduin Wrynn says: Just tell me how to prepare for this attack. Our armies--
- Wrathion says: Will be useless. N'Zoth will strike here.
- Wrathion points at Anduin's head, indicating his mind.
- Wrathion says: He'll manipulate emotions. Get people to act in ways contrary to their nature.
- Anduin looks down at his fist, which he lets relax. He turns around, looking out over Stormwind.
- Wrathion says: You won't be able to trust your senses. Your memories. Your friends.
- Anduin clutches his eyes shut as everything begins to darken around him.
- Wrathion says: After all, what is real if our perceptions can't be trusted?
- Anduin sees N'Zoth rising up. It beings to wrap its tentacles around the Chapel of Light, destroying it.
- Wrathion says: Anduin? Anduin?
- Wrathion yells: Anduin!
- Anduin snaps out of the illusion. He turns around to face Wrathion again.
- Wrathion says: Don't you see, old friend? It's already begun.
- Anduin Wrynn says: Very well, advisor. Tell us how to stop him.
