This completes the "The Light Prevails" portion of As I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Moon. The Gorgrond storyline begins with The Secrets of Gorgrond (Alliance), which opened up as soon as players reached level 92.

Yrel will later mail the player The Prophet's Arcanum.

The achievement also unlocks the purchase of the Shadowmoon Valley Treasure Map, to which Grakis will also send the player a letter.
