Notes
Some of the information received from the relics:
- A tormented voice whispers: He cannot be defeated. <The relic burns to nothing. The memories it held are now your own. This city was destroyed by a being not of this world.>
- A tormented voice whispers: Your existence is acknowledged. <The relic turns to dust. Your head throbs with newfound wisdom. Something evil lurks in the heart of the mountain.>
- A tormented voice whispers: Help us, outsider. <The relic cumbles to dust. A vision of eight Dark Iron dwarves performing some sort of ritual fills your head.>
- A tormented voice whispers: Leave this place. <The relic emits a white hot arc of flame. A memory has been gained: A lone Dark Iron dwarf is surrounded by seven corpses, kneeling before a monolith of flame.>
- A tormented voice whispers: Defiler... you will be punished for this incursion. <A symbol of flame radiates from the relic before it crumbles to the earth.>
These clues refer to the Summoners' Tomb, and presumably the Emperor himself, summoning ... any of several options apply: Bael'Gar, Magmus, possibly Lord Incendius. ... Or some presence that has since left the mountain.
As of 3.0.2 the quest seems semi-bugged. The relics are about 1.2m high stone cylinders, and they do not show the usual "use" cursor when moused over, so it's hard to finish if one doesn't know what to look for.
