ObjectivesEdit

Travel into Tempest Keep and slay Al'ar while wearing the Ashtongue Cowl. Return to Akama in Shadowmoon Valley once you've completed this task.

ItemsEdit

• [Ashtongue Cowl] (Provided)

DescriptionEdit

Olum's sacrifice was tremendous. I would never have asked him to give up his life myself. But it is done.

If we're to lure Illidan back into a false sense of security, we need to do his bidding - at least for now.

I command a vast army of Ashtongue, but - aside from the Deathsworn - none can be trusted.

You are to perform the deed that Illidan demands. Take this cowl; it is magical in nature. You will appear to be one of my men to any who see you slaying Kael's phoenix, Al'ar.

ProgressionEdit

Is the deed done, <name>? Illidan is not a patient master!

CompletionEdit

You've done well, <name>. This will bring us a step closer to shifting Illidan's focus away from us and from...

<Akama looks in Maiev Shadowsong's direction.>

More work remains to be done, <name>.
