This quest is part of the The Tower of Althalaxx quest chain.

Objectives Edit

Collect 4 Worn Parchments for Balthule Shadowstrike near the Tower of Althalaxx.

•  [Worn Parchment] (4)

Quest text Edit

A group of warlocks has taken up residence around and inside the tower. I would have returned to Auberdine to report to Elissa earlier, but I was afraid that I might miss something while I was away.

Delgren suspected such a company might be gathering at the tower, but did not know why.

A few scraps of parchment that the warlocks carry have found their way to my hands, but I need more to complete the puzzle. I warn you not to venture into the tower, however, the warlocks there are much more powerful!

Progress Edit

Have you found any more of their scrolls? I should be able to piece together a larger picture of the cult if you can find them.

Completion Edit

Many thanks, <name>. This should shed some light on this warlocks' gathering...

Hmm... the Cult of the Dark Strand... I have never heard of this group before. Having no knowledge of their history, it is all but impossible to say what their plans must be.

There is no more time to delay. Warning must be delivered to Delgren immediately.

Rewards Edit

Upon completion of this quest you will gain:

• 1350 XP (or 8 40 at level 70)
• 250 reputation with Darnassus

Notes Edit

The people you need to kill for the parchments are not the warlocks in the tower, they are the  Dark Strand Fanatics outside in the camps.
