ObjectivesEdit

Slay the Glacial Templar summoned from the Ice Stone located near the Dark Portal in Hellfire Peninsula. ^{[84, 53]}

•  Glacial Templar Slain

DescriptionEdit

We must act to preserve the balance! Time is against us.

In order to ensure Ahune's success, the cult has established a base near the Dark Portal itself in Draenor. They use ice stones to coordinate the frost lord's arrival. Much as I am loath to do this, the spirits will understand - you must summon one of this Ahune's templar protectors and destroy it. Perhaps this forestalling action will be enough...

RewardsEdit

You will receive: 94

10x [Burning Blossom]

ProgressEdit

You have returned victorious?

CompletionEdit

You have done well. It may seem a small act, but even this can aid the fight as a whole. Take this with my blessing, and return later, as I may have more for you to do.

NotesEdit

Fly to the Stair of Destiny in Hellfire Peninsula. Just to the southwest is a new Twilight's Hammer camp full of  Twilight Cryomancers and  Twilight Frostblades. Clear the area surrounding the Ice Stone and choose the "Place your hand on the Ice Stone" gossip option to summon the  Glacial Templar, which is a level 69 water elemental.
