Description

Champion, is it you? A thousand years it has been since I was entrusted the shard and it is at my darkest hour that one should rise to relieve me of it... But what would tragedy be without cruelty?

<Vaelastrasz coughs weakly.>

Ne... Nefarius now holds the scepter shard.

Time is of the essence. Nefarius plans to destroy the shard. You must hurry!

When you return

Another of our heroes lost to the spawn of Deathwing. We will be cursed with this suffering forever...

On completion

Vaelastrasz's soul is at ease, champion. The Aspects all watch your progress with great interest. Know that you have powerful allies.

I was commanded to grant you something to aid you in this struggle. Use it well...
