Hidden Enemies

Take the Lieutenant's Insignia to Neeru Fireblade and speak to him. Gauge if he believes you are a member of the Burning Blade and then return to Thrall in Orgrimmar.
  •  
Gauge Neeru Fireblade's reaction to you being a member of the Burning Blade
Provided Item:
Lieutenant's Insignia

Description

Now let us see if this insignia you found is worth the effort.

There is a warlock within the city who believes he has my trust. He does not know that I realize where his true loyalties lie. He is in fact the leader of the Burning Blade. But do not rush off to do battle with him; he has a purpose, and we shall use him against our enemies.

Take this insignia to him in the Cleft of Shadow here in Orgrimmar, speak to him and see if he believes you are one of his own, then return to me here.

Progress

Well, <class>? Does he believe our ploy, or are things worse than I had first estimated?

Proving valuable to Neeru will make our infiltration of the Shadow Council much easier. He will have plenty of information that we can use to route out those who would destroy all we have built in Durotar.

Completion

Excellent! Most excellent, <class>!

What you have done this day is only the first step in a much broader foundation--a foundation that we will build the destruction of the Shadow Council on, once and for all.

Tell me all he said... and leave not one word out--it may be more important than you realize.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 115 experience (2 76 at max. level)
  • 75 Reputation with Orgrimmar

Neeru Fireblade is found at 49,50 in the Cleft of Shadows in Orgrimmar. To get there you need to enter from The Drag. He is in a hut just outside the Ragefire Chasm instance portal.

Initiate chat with Neeru and click on the conversation option that is available. One you have your little chat with him you should get quest completed. Once this is done, return to Thrall and hand this quest in.

Finishing this quest is a prerequisite for Hidden Enemies --&gt; https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5728 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5728

At least as of 10-Aug-2007 this is not the first quest in the chain. The first quest is to go into Skull Rock and get the Lieutenant's Insignia and bring it back to Thrall.

Quest level is 12. I'm having problems with my warrior in killing the Warlock apprentices, but no Lieutenants are within the first turn or two. I was able to complete Skull Rock (https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=827 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=827) without much difficulty.

Neeru Fireblade - the guy you get the quest for RFC from, just outside the instance.... Will not show on mini-map, you have to ""talk"" to him.

Gauging Neeru's Reaction (spoiler alert!)<div class=""quote"">Listen closely to what you are told and do not quickly trust, or distrust. For even friends serve their own ends, &lt;class&gt;.

Our great Warchief knows this, and to prove that there are warlocks within the Horde who do not wish to destroy it from within or gain control over it, I have volunteered to aid our young leader in anway I can.
  • You may speak frankly, Neeru...
<div class=""quote"">Ahh, one of our own. It is good to see our numbers are growing so rapidly that I can no longer keep track of the faces of our members .

That fool Thrall thinks I am working hard to cleans the image of warlocks and prove we are his servants. Idiot! The Burning Legion will make ash of this entire world after it drains it completely.
  • It is good to see the Burning Blade is taking over where the Shadow Council once failed.
<div class=""quote"">Naive fool. The Burning Blade IS the Shadow Council! There are may cults and organizations under the Council's rule, but all of them are just extensions of their will. I may lead the Burning Blade, but I am still just as much a pawn to the Council as you are to me!

Look at the Searing Blade--most of them think they are becoming the next rising group of powerful warlocks that they will replace the Shadow Council.
  • So the Searing Blade is expendable?
<div class=""quote"">Haha! Save for their leaders--the satyr, Bazzalan, and the warlock Jergosh--yes, all of them. That is why I constantly send Thrall's worshippers at them. It gives Thrall the impression that I am weeding out the evil in the bowels of his great city. The victory is in reality two-fold: kill Thrall's faithful and test the strength of those in the Searing Blade to see if they are truly worthy of joining me.
  • If there is anything you would have of me...
<div class=""quote"">I will make it known to you. You are obviously already proving yourself in our ranks to become a lieutenant so quickly. Perhaps you can return to me later and I will have tasks for you. The council adores those skilled in the arcane, but servants of all kinds are always welcome, no matter their profession.
