Quest Objectives

Collect a Glowing Soul Gem and return it to Delgren the Purifier at Maestra's Post.

Description

Balthule's letter is dire. This Cult of the Dark Strand is a thorn in my side that must be removed. I have been dealing with some of the Dark Strand scum northeast of here at Ordil'Aran. One of their number possesses a soul gem that I believe holds the secret to the cult's power.

Bring it to me, and I will be able to decipher the secrets held within.

Rewards

Experience: 1,650

+100 reputation with Darnassus

While you work on it

Have you acquired that soul gem?

When you hand it in

Hmm, some dark magic enchants this soulstone. Let's see what's trapped inside, shall we?
