Feast for the AncestorsDurak saw You did it! ...how do we know if it worked?
Varok Saurfang says: Your offering is worthy, my friend. You have earned our blessing.
Varok Saurfang says: May your actions continue to lead the orcs to honor and glory.
Varok Saurfang says: If you would... tell Eitrigg he was right. And Thrall--tell him I am heartened to have dragged him out of seclusion!
Varok Saurfang says: Ah, and you! Durak, son of Thrall!
Durak says: Me?!
Varok Saurfang says: You will find your path in due time. And it will lead you to greatness.
Durak says. I will do my best. Thank you!
Varok Saurfang says: Go now, with honor. Always.
You are a <class> of many virtues, bravery and tenacity most of all. I am glad that Go'eI has had your aid.

The return of the Kosh'harg represents a turning point for our people. After our long suffering, a brighter future has finally been reached.Hail, <name>! The first seeker of true honor!

I am finally able to see this land called "Durotar" With my own eyes! I am ever honored that my son chose this name for the new home of the orcs.

Thank you for being his friend and ally. He has certainly had his trials. but has nevertheless found happiness and family.There is nothing more to say. We are proud of all you have accomplished, and will be watching over you as our people cross the threshold of a new age.

Please, deliver my messages to the others when you can. After everything that happened. they will want to know that all is well in the end.You and I are alike. Willing to put our lives on the line to protect what matters. The orcs, the Horde, Azeroth itself.

Continue being the exemplar of honor and might to our people. Never abandon your willingness to fight until the end.

Lok-tar Ogar! I will see you again on the other side, and will look forward to the stories of your victories.Look how far the orcs have come. In my time we knew only harsh survival, fleeing one set of shackles after another.

I know that the memory of my sacrifice has been wielded for many causes. but I do not fault anyone for fighting for a brighter future for orcs. Everything that happened since my death has led to this moment of unity!

If I have one regret, it is that I was not alive to guide my son down a better path. Let his story be a warning to those that remain.How everything has changed since I fell in Arathi! The orcs have come to another foreign land, but this time free of the subjugation of the humans. They have found their place among all these other races, true brothers and sisters in arms! I am truly proud of all of you.

And I will be honest--I am glad Thrall has returned to wearing my armor after his years of inner strife. He has always struggled to balance the warrior and the shaman within himself. but it seems he has finally found a place of happiness.
Durak says: Did that really just happen? Father speaks of Saurfang often. He misses him.Eitrigg says: Hah! Only in death would he admit it. Ah, I miss him.Safe HavenThrall says: Saurfang! What was his message?
Thrall says: I am glad you did too, old friend.

Comment by MiriandandesBroxigar finally has a model. <3Comment by KalamordisI thought Human heritage chain was cool, naustalgic, cool not much else.

Orc one seems to have more emotion seeing characters throughout the years that have a deep meaning in WoW lore, its a simple but powerful thing and is really cool.

Though, given the human one retconned a couple of things, and the Orc one was true to its roots, I can see why I feel that way.Comment by kayserBSaurfang has one more message for you if you chose to side with him during BFA.

He says "if you see Zekhan (zappy boi) tell him that I found my family".Comment by TarrangarWhy is Durotan the betrayer and murderer summonable? I wouldn't think Revendreth allow visits like this, and the slaughterer of Telmor certainly belong in Revendreth.Comment by ShadrazaarSo... if Saurfang's spirit is there what means his soul is free from the Maw... and Sylvanas is the one freeing souls from the Maw...
I mean, am I the only one who wants to see this confrontation? Or did I miss something in SL where we freed him?Comment by VelmontEbonmooreI wonder If anyone discovered the Mysterious Orc at the event, He'll gives you a flower, then disappear. So I would assume its an Easter egg/reference to the "Flower Picker Clan". You'll locate the orc right behind the great hall building along the wall in Razor Hill.Comment by AnevaySaurfang's out of the Maw already? Damn, Sylvanas. Pace yourself.Comment by AdamovixIs Garrosh present somewhere in this questline? Or is he "Mega-Dead" and thus unable to manifest as a spirit? I mean, it would be hella awkward to meet him, but he's still an important orc.Comment by PovelitelIt's so great to see our heroes of the past as well as the ones we faced not that long ago!

I am really glad Blizzard added this part of the Orc Heritage Questline.Comment by TurboShaftI can only imagine that different writers create these baitable articles. There was one that said the heritage armor quests were available, with spoilers ahead but now all the topics are just spoilers.

Is it truly so hard to just be reasonable for at least a week.Comment by ScrotaciousBlizzard has done Garrosh dirty...again.Comment by XexjiIs Garrosh present somewhere in this questline? Or is he "Mega-Dead" and thus unable to manifest as a spirit? I mean, it would be hella awkward to meet him, but he's still an important orc.Comment by PospodrolIs Garrosh present somewhere in this questline?

Such a great cultural experience for the orcs.

I missed out on talking to everyone, other than Saurfang as was required for the quest. But I was thrilled to finally see Broxigar and Grom finally added to Azeroth. And it's great, of course to see the others. Strange that Origim has a generic hammer instead of the Doomhammer. Grom has Gorehowl which is cannonly left on alternate Draenor.Comment by SolarscarWhy Grom must be hunch back ?Comment by SolarscarIs Garrosh present somewhere in this questline? Or is he "Mega-Dead" and thus unable to manifest as a spirit? I mean, it would be hella awkward to meet him, but he's still an important orc.Comment by GorbaSo... if Saurfang's spirit is there what means his soul is free from the Maw... and Sylvanas is the one freeing souls from the Maw...
