<Talanji listens to your tale of Xal'atath and N'Zoth.>

Dis is troubling news indeed. Only together can we turn back dis tide.

Notes

If you have completed  [40-70] Allegiance of the Zandalari, you will need to speak to Queen Talanji in the throne room.

Xal'atath found

Xal'atath says: Here we are. Do not be afraid. This was always meant to be.

Void Stone placed

Xal'atath says: A stone to call forth the darkness...

Trident of Deep Ocean placed

Xal'atath says: A weapon forged in the depths...

Tempest Caller placed

Xal'atath says: A crown for the ruler of all worlds...

In-game cutscene

Xal'atath says: Hear me, God of the Deep! I have brought you the Opener... the Bringer of Truths... the Torch That Lights the Way!

Dark energies take control of the adventurer and lifts them into the air, the blade being dropped in the process.

Xal'atath says: Honor our bargain... free me to find my own fate!

N'Zoth says: Go... but the blade must remain... to serve my will.

Xal'atath says: A fair exchange. Shadows guide you, my dear friend.

Xal'atath says: We will meet again... I am certain of it.

Xal'atath departs through a void portal.

N'Zoth says: I have dreamed your destiny, mortal.

The large, closed Eye opens.

N'Zoth says: The hour is close at hand.

N'Zoth says: That which was sunken shall rise.

N'Zoth says: All that were sleeping... shall be awakened.

Another, smaller void portal opens. Tendrils are seen writhing from it.

N'Zoth says: Receive my gift and see all truths before you.

A single, larger tendril than the rest stabs the adventurer's head. The latter reappears outside the Crucible... with the [Gift of N'Zoth] encircled around their head.
