Abgenutztes SchmuckstückEin gefundenes AndenkenFrenchGermanRussianSon of the Wolf

In the Legion Cinematic Trailer, we see the Abgenutztes Schmuckstück slip out of Varian's grasp as the Alliance Gunship crashes into the sea. Start the questline by finding the compass on the ocean's floor.

Ein gefundenes Andenken: <The trinket's fine brass exterior is inlaid with intricate filigree, though much of the detail has been battered by rocks and waves. Clearing away the grime and salt encrusting the clasp, you manage to open it. It is a compass--or was, at least. The glass face is shattered, the needle bent, unmoving. Set into the lid is a portrait. The paint is faded and waterlogged, but the subject is unmistakable: the face of a young Anduin Wrynn.>

<As the king examines the compass, his expression turns from recognition to sorrow> When I went through my father's things and didn't find the compass. I assumed it was with him on the Broken Shore when Gul'dan... <The king's voice breaks.>

I had this compass crafted for my father's birthday. I gave it to him a few months before my ship ran aground on Pandaria. A lifetime ago...

Since this war with the Legion began, I've barefly had a chance to think or breathe... or to mourn. Perhaps it's time to change that.

Thank you for bringing my father's compass back to me. It is a reminder of how much I miss him.

Ein gefundenes Andenken

Einbestellung in die Burg: Greetings, <name>. Your presence has been requested in the royal court. The crown has urgent need of you! Please return to Stormwind at your earliest convenience. King Greymane is anticipating your swift arrival.

Velen: Anduin refuses to eat or sleep. He ignores every plea to return to the palace. Nothing I say seems to offer comfort.

Genn: I understand the need to mourn, but the king's place is on his throne. The Broken Shore must be our focus. Convince Anduin to end his vigil!

Den König trösten: Anduin hasn't been the same since you brought him his father's compass. He has become listless... distracted. We attempted to console him, to no avail. Yesterday morning, he left the keep without so much as a word. I ordered the guards to follow him, of course. He went to pray at the cathedral, where he's remained ever since. You brought this melancholy upon him! You must convince the boy to resume his duties. There's a war to be won!

Herz eines Königreichs: My father was a legend. He oversaw the rebuilding of Stormwind, stood toe-to-toe with dragons, led the Alliance to numerous victories. Then, one day, he was just... gone. I wear his crown, I hold his title. But I've done nothing to earn them... or the faith of my people. I've spent the war sequestered in the keep, surrounded by guards and advisors. I need to walk the streets of Stormwind, to know whether it is hope or fear that beats in the hearts of my people. I welcome your company.

Anduin dons a new disguise to blend in better with the citizens of Stormwind. He then overhears what the citizens of Stormwind have to say about him:

Jenny Winslow: They brought back my cousin's body from the Broken Shore last week. I expect a lot more to follow.
Roy Pitts: At least we're safe here in Stormwind. King Wrynn will keep the city safe.
Jenny Winslow: Will he? How exactly will he keep an endless army of demons from invading and killing everyone?

Dougie: I'm King Anduin! I'm gonna kill every demon I see!
Karyn: Don't be Anduin, be Varian! He was way tougher.
Dougie: Yeah, my dad says that too. Okay, I'm King Varian. Look out, demons!

I have not returned to Lion's Rest since my father's memorial was moved here from the keep.
The war has consumed all of my energy and attention. I have not had a moment to grieve.
Since you brought my father's compass back to me, I've prayed to the Light for guidance, and to know his spirit is at rest. The Light doesn't answer.
My people like me, respect me...but they don't believe in me. Not like they believed in him.
I've heard the voices of the people, but how do my father's advisors feel? I fear they do not trust me as they did my father.

Velen: The young king will become a great leader, I have foreseen it.
Greymane: Visions don't win wars, Prophet. The boy has a good heart, but untested.
Velen: The Light is strong with Anduin. He will grow into his crown. We must have faith.
We need more than that, and so does he. Anduin wasn't there on the Broken Shore, he hasn't seen the sacrifices soldiers made, that they continue to make. A King must know the weight of the orders he gives, the price of them.

If a compass breaks his spirit, how will he respond when the war arrives on our doorsteps? I'll ready a ship at once.

Eine persönliche NachrichtThe time has come for me to travel to the Broken Shore and see, for myself, the place where my father died. If I am to be the king my father was... the king Stormwind deserves, I must know firsthand the threat my people face. Please tell my advisors that I've gone to the Broken Shore. If I told them myself they'd only try and stop me. I'll wait for you at Deliverance Point. Farewell.Erinnerungswürdige EindrückeIt's good to have you at my side, <name>. I've come to the Broken Shore to see, for myself, the price that my father... that the Alliance has paid to protect our world. As long as I am blind to the suffering and sacrifices of my people, I will never be able to lead them to peace. Time is short, we should move onward.

This land is far worse than I had imagined.
My father sought to shield me from the war, insisting I stay behind because a Wrynn must always rule in Stormwind. But I saw the truth in his eyes... his fear of losing me.
When my mother died, I was all he had left of her.

Verlorene SeelenNever in my life have I beheld such destruction... such misery. The very ground we walk on us paved with the bones of our allies. Even now I can see the lost spirits of Alliance soldiers wandering the ruins. I cannot leave this place without putting the souls of our brave soldiers to rest. We owe them... I owe them that much.

Time and time again, I have watched from afar as the heroes of Stormwind fought and died to preserve peace on Azeroth.
My father was not the first King of Stormwind to die fighting the Burning Legion.
My great-grandfather, King Barathen, and my grandfather, King Llane, also paid the ultimate sacrifice.
The kings of my family have always fought shoulder-to-shield with their soldiers for the freedom of Stormwind.

Der Weg des KönigsNow that I have seen the Broken Shore and the terror of the Burning Legion first hand, my eyes have been opened to the truth. I speak not of the unfathomable evil of the enemy, but of the bravery and sacrifice that such evil brings about in the hearts of our people. My father once told me that every king must carry the weight of his own crown. Mine has never felt heavier than it does at this very moment... Please take me to the place where my father died, so that I may honor his sacrifice.Son of the Wolf

Kommentar von oakator Greymane... the manipulating asshat. "Yeah, we're taking the skyfire on a scouting mission. We're not declaring war based on an old grudge of mine. Nope. Never you mind your pretty little prince head." Kommentar von Jimbrooks Dankuin Kommentar von eudo Too much Freud Blizzard, father complex an all that.
A propos, what enchant is this in Varian's weapon? Kommentar von Enade001 Aaaand now Anduin becomes a Paladin. Arthas 2.0! Kommentar von Bl4s3 Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn... Horde needs a Quest like that too.... What is Sylvanas up to anyways? Kommentar von Orian All the horde gets is a quest to give Khadgar 2500 Shards where he instantly refunds 2499 of them and we're done for the week

thanks for nothing blizzard Kommentar von Grokironhide Nothing apparently, blizz is really happy with how stormheim played out.

Not like we don't know what terms were actually agreed on between helya and Sylvanas or anything aye Blizz? Kommentar von kodora1316 I still think it's crappy that as a horde you get the full cutscenes showing why we had to bail on the broken shore. When I played my alliance through the opening quests it was conveniently skipped. At least give the alliance the full story, too. Kommentar von Leviathon @Orian Horde got the cinematic with Vol'jin after the Broken Shore while Alliance got nothing dealing with Varian's death. This is just balancing that out. Kommentar von Ayrianna How about not having a spoiler right in the huge video thumbnail that I can't choose to not see the second I get to the homepage? >:( Kommentar von Thalia25 How about not having a spoiler right in the huge video thumbnail that I can't choose to not see the second I get to the homepage? >:(Kommentar von lylarise Holy moly.
I wasn't expecting this feels train. Kommentar von Snapdrag0n I'm a dedicated and loyal Hordie of many years and I teared up watching that video. Dang, that was awesome! Kommentar von Wyspe Dem feels man! Horde or not, I love lore and everything connected to Wrynns death and all the chaotic emotional cinematics really make ya teary. Kommentar von oakator Ooooooh! I like that! He goes to Icecrown to kill the man who raised him and take his place! Kommentar von Foxpaw Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn... Horde needs a Quest like that too.... What is Sylvanas up to anyways?Kommentar von longgood All the horde gets is a quest to give Khadgar 2500 Shards where he instantly refunds 2499 of them and we're done for the week

thanks for nothing blizzardKommentar von Durg Sure, you can claim it's balancing out for our little extra Vol'jin cinematic before. But the "balance" is a 20 sec funeral with very little development vs. a full three minute cinematic with huge development for a major character. Over correction, man. Bad enough Blizz made us look like cowards in the original Alliance cinematic. Kommentar von Soeroah Well, if the Alliance are the only ones who get to see this, I either gotta level my Alliance DH quicksmart to do this questline when it's available, or watch the cinematic.. Kommentar von Dragonhearts Please don't tell me his going to be a pally. One of the most cool things about him is he is a priest.
you don't need a freaking sword. smite that demon butt priest style!
