An Unwelcome Advisor

An Unwelcome Advisor begins the patch 8.3 quest line, the Black Empire Campaign. Level 120 Alliance players will be automatically pushed the quest upon entering Boralus after the patch goes live so long as they have unlocked Nazjatar and the Essense system.

Speak with King Anduin Wrinn in Stormwind Keep.

• Speak with Anduin Wrynn

Even with the forces of the Horde and Alliance working together, we still have found no trace of N'Zoth's forces. Ever since his release, the Old God has evaded us at every turn.

The Light only knows what ill he has in store for Azeroth.

Meet me in Stormwind Keep. We must put a plan together to uncover N'Zoth's schemes before it is too late!

You will receive:

• 1,800 XP

What is it?

It would appear that N'Zoth's corruption is already reaching its way into our minds. We have no time to waste.

Go with Magni and Wrathion and see what you can uncover. I will ensure that our forces are ready to defend against any attack.

Good luck.

Speak with Anduin:

• It is about time you arrived.
• I hope you have some sense of how we can manage to root N'Zoth out of hiding. Thus far, Shaw and his spies have proven worthless.

Magni offers the next quest, Return of the Warrior King.

It saddens me that the Alliance and Horde can only seem to set aside their differences in the face of total annihilation.

• Valeera's gossip

If we do prevail against N'Zoth, will you yet again turn your blades on each other?
