The Essence of Eranikus

A level 55 quest for both factions, from level 48.

Unchanged in Forever as far as is known: the text, objectives and rewards below are Classic’s.

Quest Objectives

Bring the Oathstone of Ysera's Dragonflight and the Chained Essence of Eranikus to Itharius in the Swamp of Sorrows. It is there that you will make your choice to aid Ysera's Dragonflight or not.

  • Item #10455

Provided: Oathstone of Ysera's Dragonflight

Description

You engage the Oathstone, and Itharius speaks directly to your mind through the stone.

"By accepting the charge placed in this Oathstone, you agree to aid my cause and the cause of Ysera's Dragonflight in redeeming the corrupted soul of Eranikus. The first sacrifice, one of many you and I will no doubt make, will be to relinquish the gem to me that has chained what free-willed part of Eranikus' psyche remains."

"Do this ‹name›, and we will work together to redeem a soul worthy of redemption."

Rewards

Experience: 550

When you come back

Here we are ‹name›, at yet another crossroads. The time has come to make another choice. What choice do you make, mortal?

When you hand it in

You have made your choice, and so it begins. Your choices have been, to date, what I would consider to be the correct ones; your actions and deeds henceforth will determine whether this is to continue.
