A Crumpled Up Note
Level: 58 (Requires 50)
Type: Dungeon
[A Crumpled Up Note]
Marshal Windsor
XP: 6200 EXP (or 37 50 at level 70)

A Crumpled Up Note is a quest which is part of the Great Masquerade quest chain. It follows from the previous one by way of an item dropped by any of a large number of mobs, once one has completed the quest Abandoned Hope.

Objectives Edit

You may have just stumbled on to something that Marshal Windsor would be interested in seeing. There may be hope, after all.

•  [A Crumpled Up Note] (Provided)

Description Edit

The note has stains covering its surface. The text is barely legible, but you make out the following:

...sweet irony...

...the fall of the broken Alliance...

...if it were not for General Angerforge's diligence, we may have never discovered the pattern to the encryption...

...Argelmach is almost done with the decryption of Windsor's notes.

Our lord will rise from the depths and crush any that remain...

-Emperor Dagran Thaurissan.

Progress Edit

<Marshal Windsor eyes the note in your hand.>

What do you have there, <name>?

Completion Edit

<Marshal Windsor takes the note and begins reading.>

Rewards Edit

Upon completion of this quest you will gain:

• 6200 XP (or 37 50 at level 70)
• 250 reputation with Stormwind

Notes Edit

The crumpled up note drops from most Anvilrage mobs, as well as from bloodhounds, Shadowforge Peasants, Blazing Fireguards, and (outside the instance) Quarry Slaves.

One must have completed Abandoned Hope for it to drop. As that requires you to leave the instance, this will be the second time you enter Blackrock Depths in the course of this chain.
