Description
In the thick of Plaguewood lies the entrance to the dread citadel of Naxxramas. Previously, all attempts to enter had been stymied by the magical wards placed upon the rune portal. That is, until now.
We have devised a way to gain entry via arcane cloaking - an old cantrip of the Kirin Tor with a few modifications of my own. Since your dedication to the cause of the Dawn is somewhat lacking, your name, the price will be high. You may decline and choose to return when you are revered or exalted for a discount.
In progress
None have entered Naxxramas and lived to tell the tale.
Completion
You will feel a slight tingle, your name. That sensation means it's working. Once complete, you will be able to enter Naxxramas by stepping upon the rune portal in Plaguewood.
