This quest concludes the Bashal'Aran quest chain, and foreshadows another quest chain: The Tower of Althalaxx

Objectives

Destroy the Ancient Moonstone Seal at the ancient flame in Ameth'Aran, then return to Asterion in Bashal'Aran.

• Destroy the seal at the ancient flame
• [Ancient Moonstone Seal](Provided)

Description

It was the craft of one of the most powerful of the Highborne that created the seal that formed my prison. In Ameth'Aran, the ruins to the south that are twin to these, persists even today an ancient flame, blue in color. In this flame this seal could be destroyed.

Be wary in the ruins, <name>...

Completion

I am freed, <name>! I can now see with my own eyes the changes that have come to our world... Only bits and pieces have I known. To think that when I last walked freely, the Well still stood and the Highborne held court with Azshara, our beloved queen.

I sense that my jailor, my former master, Athrikus, still lives... Already my feelings of hopelessness will give way into thoughts of vengeance.

Rewards

Upon completion of this quest you will gain:

• 675 XP (or 4 20 at level 70)
• 150 reputation with Darnassus

Quest progression

Bashal'Aran (4)
Level range	12 - 13
Zones	Darkshore

The Bashal'Aran quest chain is a relatively short series of quests involving a shrine as yet untouched by the demonic forces in the area.

Bashal'Aran

 [12] Bashal'Aran

Thundris Windweaver in Auberdine has heard reports of a strange blue aura around a shrine in the ruins of Bashal'Aran. While minor demons have overrun the area, they aren't touching this shrine, and Thundris would like you to investigate.

 [12] Bashal'Aran

You travel to the shrine, and discover Asterion, a ghost who has been trapped in the shrine by an  [Ancient Moonstone Seal]. Asterion asks your help to find the seal, the first step of which is to gather earrings from the sprites and grells inhabiting the ruins.

 [13] Bashal'Aran

Asterion casts his spells on the earrings and finds that while the grells do not have the seal, they have been in contact with it recently. Knowing demons, he suspects that one of the more powerful Satyrs nearby must have it.

And it proves to be so. You slay a number of the Satyrs (a good work of its own) until you find the one that has possession of the seal.

 [13] Bashal'Aran (4)

Returning to Asterion, the ghost is pleased to find that his immurement may finally be coming to an end. He asks you to travel south to Ameth'Aran, where persists an ancient blue flame that can destroy the seal.

There are the spirits of the highborne all throughout the ruins, and you have to destroy a few to make it to the flame Asterion told you about. You destroy the seal as Asterion instructed you, and return to the shrine.

Asterion thanks you for his freedom, and mentions that he had been imprisoned there since before the Great Sundering.

Notes

The flame is a very dim cyan flame on a large cubical brazier at 42,61 within a stone gazebo. You can click on the brazier to incinerate the seal.
