What to do
Kill Emperor Dagran Thaurissan.
Objective by objective
- Kill or interact with Emperor Dagran Thaurissan NPC #9019
The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.
The quest giver's words
Emperor Dagran Thaurissan has total control over the city from his throne ahead. If we are to stop his armies, we're going to have to end their emperor's reign.
You'll need to get past his personal guard, including the giant Magmus, to reach him. Move as quickly as possible - if word gets out before you finish, the entire city will descend upon his throne.
Note that the doors across the Lyceum will only open once you've lit the braziers with torches from the flamekeepers. Good luck.
Progress
If you do not succeed, I have no doubt that Thaurissan will execute the lot of us.
Completion
You've done it! You've actually done it! Morgan's years of planning and waiting have finally come to fruition.
She may have lost her land and family when Ragnaros tore this land asunder, but with the Dark Iron crippled we'll be able to safely build a new kingdom of our own in the Burning Steppes. Not even the Firelord himself will be able to breech the capital's walls!
Make sure you come back someday when we've finished, you'll be our guest of the highest honor. I thank you with all my heart, <name>.

What players recorded
Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.
Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.
- Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route
An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.
Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Blackrock Depths), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
