There is much more to learn!
Notes[]
Some of the information received from the relics:
- A tormented voice whispers: He cannot be defeated.
- The relic burns to nothing. The memories it held are now your own. This city was destroyed by a being not of this world.
- A tormented voice whispers: Your existence is acknowledged.
- The relic turns to dust. Your head throbs with newfound wisdom. Something evil lurks in the heart of the mountain.
- A tormented voice whispers: Help us, outsider.
- The relic cumbles to dust. A vision of eight Dark Iron dwarves performing some sort of ritual fills your head.
- A tormented voice whispers: Leave this place.
- The relic emits a white hot arc of flame. A memory has been gained: A lone Dark Iron dwarf is surrounded by seven corpses, kneeling before a monolith of flame.
- A tormented voice whispers: Defiler... you will be punished for this incursion.
- A symbol of flame radiates from the relic before it crumbles to the earth.
- A tormented voice whispers: Do not taint these ruins, mortal.
- You are engulfed by a blinding flash of light. A creature composed entirely of flame is the only thing you can remember seeing.
These clues refer to The Seven and the Sorcerer-thane Thaurissan, summoning Ragnaros during the War of the Three Hammers.
