- I am ready to begin.
Stage 4: The Dead Shall Rise[]
- Raise the dead in the tomb behind Light's Hope Chapel.
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: There is a tomb behind the chapel where the power of the Light is weak.
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: Raise the dead from within the tomb and it will distract the guards long enough for us to make our way to the chapel.
Go to the tomb behind Light's Hope Chapel. The NPCs are friendly, so they won't attack you in your way. Some of them will say things to you:
- Argent Sentry says: Tread carefully, Death Knight. This is holy ground and we have little tolerance for your kind.
Once on the crypt, you will be able to use:
When you use it, there is going to be like an earthquake and many Risen Ghouls will appear. You have to use it in all the halls of the crypt.
Stage 5: The Highlord Awaits[]
- Meet with Highlord Darion Mograine in the Chapel.
- Argent Sentry says: My Lord! We're under attack... it's... it's the Ebon Blade!
Go out from the crypt, and go to the chapel. You will find in your way Risen Ghouls fighting to Argent Sentries (now hostile). Inside the crypt, you will find Darion Mograine (strangulating Lord Maxwell Tyrosus), Nazgrim, Thoras Trollbane, and Sally Whitemane. The secret door to the Sanctum of Light is open.
Stage 6: The Sanctum of Light[]
- Fight your way to the Hall of Champions.
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: Tirion's body rests below us in the Hall of Champions. We will join you shortly, Deathlord.
- Lord Maxwell Tyrosus says: You will not succeed, Darion. The Light will not allow it!
All the way will be full of Argent Sentries, an Argus Purifier, a Silver Hand Knight, a Blood Knight, and a Sunwalker Brave. Once you reach the Hall of Champions, stage 7 will start.
Stage 7: Lady of the Light[]
- Defeat Lady Liadrin in the Hall of Champions.
In the Hall of Champions, you will have to fight with four Silver Highguards. Further, you will find Lady Liadrin and you have to defeat her.

- Lady Liadrin says: Turn back from this unholy mission, or be purged by the Light!
Fighting
- Lady Liadrin says: By the Light, be purged!
When you defeat her, the final stage will begin.
Final Stage: An Unholy Fate[]
- Lady Liadrin kneels. Darion, Nazgrim, Thoras, and Sally enter the hall. Darion approaches the Tomb of Highlord Tirion Fordring.
- Lady Liadrin says: Such power... how can this be?
- Lady Liadrin says: You are a monster, Darion!
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: Without monsters there can be no heroes.
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: The time has come, Deathlord. Tirion Fordring awaits.
- Use Raise Horseman
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: At last, the Four Horsemen shall have their leader...
- The room starts to be full of Light, and you are knocked back.
- Lady Liadrin says: You fools. Did you really think the Light would allow this?
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: What is this?!
- Lady Liadrin says: The Lich King himself had no power here!
- Lady Liadrin says: The Light protects this chapel, Darion. Darkness cannot abide within the Light!
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: NO! I will not allow the Ebon Blade to fall!
- High Inquisitor Whitemane says: Darion!
- Highlord Darion Mograine says: The Death Gate... take... it.
- Nazgrim, Thoras, Whitemane enter in the gate, back to Acherus. Darion death grips the death knight adventurer into it with the last of his strength.
Finale[]
You appear in Acherus: The Ebon Hold with Darion dead, and the horsemen around him.
- Nazgrim says: Highlord! We must do something before it's too late.
- High Inquisitor Whitemane says: The Light has ravaged his body. There is nothing we can do for him.
- King Thoras Trollbane says: Even in a lifetime of war, I have never before seen such sacrifice.

- The Lich King says: Darion Mograine has sacrificed more for the Ebon Blade than any other.
- The Lich King says: His body lays before you, broken. Scarred.
