How to start and complete A Light in the Dark quest in WoW The War Within

A Light in the Dark is part of a quest chain in WoW The War Within, and it’s also the name of the fifth chapter of The War Within campaign story.

The entire questline is rather short and straightforward, and with the new weekly reset, you can finally complete it. So, here’s our full guide to start and complete A Light in the Dark quest in The War Within expansion.

How to start A Light in the Dark quest in WoW The War Within

Before you start A Light in the Dark quest, you must finish the Khaz Algar campaign story. Then, start and complete the first four chapters of The War Within campaign. When you reach the fifth chapter, talk to Alleria Windrunner in Dornogal, at coordinates 31.6, 59.6. She gives you the first quest called A Tide Needing Turned. Make your way to the Hallowfall zone, turn in the quest, and accept and complete the following:

• Steel and Flames
• The Might of Khaz Algar
• Cutting Off the Legs

All three quests are easy and quick, since they only require you to fight off the Nerubian forces and rally your allies on the battlefield. After you’ve complete them, speak with Anduin Wrynn and you start A Light in the Dark quest.

Once you accept the quest, you get a cool cutscene with Alleria, after which you’re automatically teleported to the Priory of the Sacred Flame. Fight your way to North and South Braziers and light them up. While the mobs aren’t elites, be sure not to run out of the light meter that protects you from the darkness.

Then, enter the main building, and another cutscene triggers where Alleria defeats Xal’atath and Anduin saves Khadgar. Turn in the A Light in the Dark quest to Alleria and head back to Dornogal. Speak with Merrix and Anduin, and you’re finally done with chapter five.
