Blackfathom Villainy

Bring the head of Twilight Lord Kelris to Dawnwatcher Selgorm in Darnassus.
Head of Kelris

Description

Strength has left me. Your help is needed!

Long ago this site was a great temple of Elune. But misfortune led to ruin when the corruption of an Old God seeped up from beneath the earth and tainted the sacred Moon Well.

Aku'Mai, servant of the Old God, rose from the waters.

The Twilight's Hammer cultists have allied with the naga to occupy these grounds. The cultists, led by Kelris, sacrifice innocents to Aku'Mai for power.

Slay Kelris and bring his head to Selgorm in Darnassus, <name>, please.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Gravestone Scepter
Arctic Buckler
Also, you get: 65

Progress

Time is a precious commodity, <class>.

My role here in Darnassus is to ensure that the Argent Dawn thrives and that the evil forces encroaching upon Kalimdor are thwarted.

State your business quickly or be on your way.

Completion

Kelris has eluded us for quite some time.

It seems as though whenever evil made its presence known in these parts, Kelris had played a role. For some time we considered him dead or missing.

But this makes perfect sense. By ending his reign you have spared the lives of many innocent people.

By the light! To sacrifice someone to a servant of an Old God for one's personal gain is beyond reproachful!

You have done a great deed, <name>. I salute you on behalf of the Argent Dawn.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:

If your a twink and worried about getting too much exp just pick it up inside the instance, you do not need to have gotten the first quest to get it so you save 2.4k experience.

As a Horde this quest was given to me after turning in the previous one: ""That quest is not available to your race."" After that i could just pick it up anyway...

This boss is located deeper inside the instance. Once quest is acquired, swim back out then proceed south and follow the caverns, past several groups of Twilight mobs, and inside a structure and kill Kelris. The turn-in is at Darnassus so if you're done with the instance at this point you can hearth or port out.

I know that there are only two confirmed Old Gods, but does anyone know if this quest refers to C'Thun or Yogg-Saron?

Pick up https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1198 In Search of Thaelrid before doing this quest, as it will not be available after.

As a level 37 Draenei Mage, picked this quest up and when I turned it in to the NPC inside Blackfathom Deeps, I was awarded with 1000 Argent Dawn reputation. Might want to get the tooltip fixed. However, at the time I was also max exalted with Darnassus, so I am not sure if that has any bearing at all. This was as of 3.3.5. Coupled with the other 2 quests, they bumped me from 200/3000 Neutral to 200 into Friendly.

It says this quest cannot be obtained, but I have it in my quest log and was going crazy trying to figure out how to complete it.

As of 2013 01 10, was still able to pick up and complete this quest. Quest is not obsolete as indicated. Twilight Lord Kelris is located on the second level. To get to the second level, as you head towards Gelihast, take the offshoot to the right, then hang a right again where the map cuts off flat (indicating moar stuffs) instead of tapering to a point (indicating a cave end).
