Slay Cindermaul and locate the Tome of Openings.

• Tome of Openings

Twilight's Hammer is using these corridors, and others like them, to move supplies from the elemental planes up into Azeroth. In order to seal these passages off, we're going to need to know how they're constructed.

Find for me the Tome of Openings, used by the elementals to open gates between the planes.

Cindermaul the Portal Master should have one. You'll have to kill him. Careful! He's probably got some tricks up his sleeve...

You will receive:

The tome! Have you found it?

This is the tome we've heard about?

I see... I guess it's good that I can read some of the elemental script. I'll work on translating this. Meanwhile, there's to take care of.

Head back in to the tunnel to the east. Across from the Twilight Anvil is a small room with three portals guarded by, a level 81 elemental with 74,374 health, at. True to Jordan's word, this is a multi-phase fight: On aggro: At 75%: At 50%: At 25%: On Death:
