| − | Along with [[Uldum]] and [[Uldaman]], there exists a third base of the [[titan]]s called Ulduar. A fourth base, [[Maraudon]], is the location of [[Terramok]], an ancient titan vault. A fifth base is located under [[Bael Modan]]. Ulduar is located in [[The Storm Peaks]] of [[Northrend]]. |
||
| + | You heard me, I want to blow the damned thing up. |
||
| − | Ulduar is a mysterious subterranean realm of ice and stone. This was once the [[storm giant]]s' stronghold, but they didn't build it. Brann Bronzebeard believes it to be a titan city (it is also production facility and a prison), as it matched the design of the two temples in Northrend, and other ruins [[dwarves]] found elsewhere (and because it contained the word "Uld"). Massive buildings protrude from the tops and sides of mountains, many hundreds of times taller than a human. When Brann Bronzebeard first explored the area, a section he discovered was covered in rock and ice. He thought it was an amazing place but couldn't tell from outside, because it was completely hidden to him. The exterior he saw looked like the other peaks to him: a jumble of rock and ice cut at angles only nature would have produced. The entrance he discovered was well-hidden and heavily guarded by [[crystal golem]]s.{{Cite|LoM|110}} However large sections of the facility are now visible aboveground. |

| − | Inside, Ulduar is a profusion of tunnels and stairs and balconies. The entire place appears to be carved out of a massive cave, and many of the levels are natural ledges. It has the feeling, as if nature were improved upon rather than replaced or recreated. The surfaces are a strange mix of smooth and unaltered stone and ice, as when a master sculptor works in stone and lets the material’s natural texture add depth and beauty. It shows where the dwarves got their skill in stonework, but judging by Ulduar they're still a long way from matching their creators. |

||
| − | When Brann was exploring the place, the storm giants themselves were so few in number that one could wander the halls without ever meeting one — he believed this was probably for the best, since no one was supposed to gain entrance. The giants are a dying race desperately avoiding their fate. They seem to think another race will vanquish them some day, and so they hide in Ulduar rather than girding for battle. They are too frightened to battle the [[Scourge]], but apparently they hate it. Ulduar is likely a treasure trove of information on the Titans and their activities.{{Cite|LoM|110}} Since then the storm giants have moved to the Howling Fjord. |

| − | ''For millennia, [[Ulduar]] has remained undisturbed by mortals, far away from their concerns and their struggles. Yet since its recent discovery, many have wondered what the structure's original purpose may have been. Some thought it a city, built to herald the glory of its [[maker]]s; some thought it a vault containing innumerable treasures, perhaps even relics of the mighty [[Titan]]s themselves. Such speculations were wrong. Beyond Ulduar's gates lies no city, no treasure vault, no final answer to the Titan's mysteries. All that awaits those who dare set foot in Ulduar is a horror even the Titans could not, would not destroy, an evil they merely... contained. '' |

 What We Know... | |
|---|---|
| Start | Vindicator Aesom |
| End | Exarch Admetius |
| Level | 20 (Requires 18) |
| Type | Group |
| Category | Bloodmyst Isle |
| Experience |
160 EXP (or 90 at level 70) |
| Next | Quest:What We Don't Know... |
Objectives
Speak to Exarch Admetius at Blood Watch.
Description
We've learned much of our enemies in recent days. The blood elves are led by a being known as Sironas and plot to destroy us. Ultimately, they seek to enslave O'ros and regain control of the Exodar.
Light be praised, we have stopped their supply line by destroying the sun gate. Unfortunately, they continue to use the contaminant of the Vector Coil to poison the land, using the mutagenic properties of the fallout to their advantage.
With this knowledge, Admetius has devised a plan. Seek him out.
Completion
I am in need of your services, <name>. I have a plan to topple the entire Sunhawk army, but before we can progress, we need to gather some vital information.
We need to identify the weaknesses in their primary defense. Unfortunately, we have been unable to get close enough to the Vector Coil to gauge their defenses. If we could get the prisoner to talk, we could get the information that we needed to break through the line and destroy the Vector Coil.
You heard me, I want to blow the damned thing up.
Gains
Upon completion of this quest you will gain:
- 160 XP (or 90
at level 70) - 10 reputation with Exodar
Progression
As of a recent patch, this quest and those into which it chains are only available to Draenei.
