Objectives

Speak to Apata Highmountain at Krasus' Landing in Dalaran.

Description

 [Talonclaw] is a mighty spear indeed! I first set eyes upon it when the Highmountain tauren led the members of my order up to Talon Peak to found the Trueshot Lodge.

But such tales must wait for another time.

Apata has been in Dalaran gathering supplies for her expedition. I imagine she's ready to depart by now.

Seek her out at Krasus' Landing. I know she will be eager to begin.

First artifact accept:

Emmarel Shadewarden says: Speak to me again when you return to Dalaran. We have much to discuss.

Rewards

You will receive: 1 94

Completion

My brother Wuho and I will be honored to have you on this quest, <name>. Talonclaw is a sacred artifact to my people, and I know with your help we will recover it.

We just have to do one thing before we head out, speak with the Eagle Spirit.

Notes

Arrive at Krasus' Landing

Apata Highmountain says: Glad to see you. We need to stop in Highmountain before our ultimate goal of Stormheim.
