The Cover of Darkness

Return to the Fallen Hero of the Horde with your findings.

Description

Let us not mince words, <race>; my time here is limited.

You must destroy the triad of power which protects the demon lord, Razelikh. Doing so will not be as simple a task as freeing a damned soul.

<Kirith grins.>

You see, each of Razelikh's underlings wears a third of an amulet of Razelikh's creation around their neck. The very same amulet you will need in order to summon the arch demon.

Return to Trebor and tell him what is required to summon Razelikh. He will be able to instruct you further.

Completion

The demon lord displays a cunning almost as calculated as his brutality, <name>.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 330 experience (19 80 at max. level)

Now this is actually an incredibly long quest line that has you killing lots of mobs and bosses here in Blasted Lands, in Azshara, and then back to Blasted Lands again, ending with a quest to kill Razelikh the Defiler. Now Thottbot doesn't have the whole quest line linked together, and some of the rewards are missing, but here's the full line as close as I can make it:

Step 1 (Alliance only, Horde just go straight to Step 2, far as I know):
Giver: Ambassador Ardalan
Name: Petty Squables
Description: Talk to the Fallen Hero of the Horde, who can be found at the border of Blasted Lands and Swamp of Sorrows

Step 2:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: Fall From Grace
Description: Talk to the Fallen Hero of the Horde.

Step 3:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: A Tale of Sorrow
Description: Go through the story of the Fallen Hero of the Horde in his chat dialog.

Step 4:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: The Stones That Bind Us
Description: Destroy 3 Servants of Sevine, Servants of Allistarj, and Servants of Grol, and 9 Servants of Razelikh. The process by which to destroy them is to attack them until they become ""banished"" - they go all ghostly and translucent and are invulnerable, then destroy the stone near them. Be sure to initiate the attack while near the Servant's Binding Stone, otherwise, you will not be able to destroy it.

Step 5:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: Heroes of Old
Description: Talk to Corporal Thund Splithoof, another ghost who will now spawn a few feet away, on the other side of the road from the Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde.

Step 6:
Giver: Corporal Thund Splithoof
Name: Heroes of Old
Description: Open the chest that spawns on the ground next to Corporal Thund Splithoof. You'll get Shard of Afrasa from the chest as a reward.

Step 7:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: Kirith
Description: Find Kirith the Damned in the cave in the eastern wall of Serpent's Coil. He's a 55 Elite freakin huge Felhound. Kill him, and the Spirit of Kirith appears. Talk to him to complete the quest and begin the next part.

Step 8:
Giver: Spirit of Kirith
Name: The Cover of Darkness
Description: Go back to the Fallen Hero of the Horde.

Step 9:
Giver: Fallen Hero of the Horde
Name: The Demon Hunter
Description: To come when I complete it!
