I have posted the complete line of quests from here to the end rewards for both Alliance and Horde. It is a long description but I hope it will solve some confusion as you can start this quest at level 40 but to complete the very end quests you have to be level 45. The quest line will send you to Tanaris and mingle you with level 50 elites towards the end. Here are the links: https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=2964 for Alliance and https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=2968 for the Horde to follow. The end rewards are mail and plate boots for the horde and a wand and throwing weapon for the Alliance. There is great XP along the way and most of it is just chatting NPCs in Ironforge and Thunderbluff. Good luck!

Here's a transcript of the Lore Keeper's conversation:

Salutations. My function is to offer access to and, when permissible, insight into informations regarding the Creators' synthesis of the Earthen on the world designated as Azeroth. I am ready to share this information with you now at your leisure.

Who are the Earthen?

The Earthen are a synthesized race engineered by the Creators, functioning as one of the seed races in the initial population of the world designated as Azeroth. The Earthen were created to aid the Creators' efforts in shaping the deep regions of this world.

They are a modification of the standard subterranean being matrix used on other worlds that the Creators have seeded. The construction of this prototype race created various anomalies that were observed after initial synthesis.

What is a 'subterranean being matrix'?

It is one of the synthesis matrices the Creators use when seeding a world. Each synthesis matrix is used to achieve the Creators' goals. For Azeroth, a subterranean being matrix was modified to create a being with increased durability with an affinity for deep region shaping; the Earthen are the product of this modification.

After the Earthen had been put into service for the Creators, unforeseen anomalies were discovered that affected their synthesis matrix due to high-stress environments.

What are the anomalies you speak of?

Additional background information on the Earthen must be given to you before this question may be answered properly. Processing.

To understand the anomalies of the Earthen, it is first important to understand what the Earthen represent in their design intent. The Earthen represent the Creators' attempt at improving the survivability paradigm of the standard subterranean being matrix. This was done by incorporating a resilient foundation of construction inherent to the world into said matrix.

What is a resilient foundation of construction?

It is the baseline material used in race synthesis. A cross-section of Azeroth's crust was used as the foundation for the Earthen's synthesis rather than the typical biomass construction foundation used by the Creators.

Research on the world's composition led the Creators to theorize that an enhanced being could be synthesized that would epitomize the resiliency of this world's essence. This was accomplished by choosing to use a blend of Azeroth's various stone core compounds as the foundation.

So... the Earthen were made out of stone?

Simply stated, this is correct.

The Earthen's physical features are that of a smaller stature humanoid, though their composition is that of Azeroth's various stone core compounds. Their design maximizes strength and stamina without sacrificing cognitive processing power. Their skin and musculature are nearly impervious to physical damage, and with very minor modifications the Earthen display a remarkable resiliency to unwanted magical forces.

Anything else I should know about the Earthen?

It is integral to the assimilation of this data that it is understood that the Creators wanted to synthesize a race that would long be an integral part of this world's development cycle after they had departed. This race would be instrumental in fulfilling the Creators' long-term development objectives for Azeroth.

As an ancillary note, the nomenclature "Earthen" was deemed apropos for the new race by the Creators, based on the Earthen's composition.

I think I understand the Creators' design intent for the Earthen now. What are the Earthen's anomalies that you spoke of earlier?

The Earthen's only anomaly in synthesis is the tendency for matrix destabilization while being utilized in high-stress environments.

Addendum: Deep earth sculpting was naturally suited to the new matrix design and thus never met the qualifications of duplicating a high-stress environment.

Destabilization was not discovered until well into the Earthen's primary service cycle for the Creators. The Creators began work on post-synthesis modification, rather than recall and re-synthesis.

What high-stress environments would cause the Earthen to destabilize?

The information you request is not currently available in this repository's data cycling. I sincerely apologize for this omission.

Please request this information after a data cycling update has been performed on this information repository. You may also request this information from another information repository located on Azeroth.

What happens when the Earthen destabilize?

There are two potential results when the Earthen's synthesis matrix destabilizes. Initiating visual aid representation number one.

The first variant matrix is a degenerative product of synthesis, hereby designated with the common nomenclature of "Trogg". This variant maintains strength and stamina comparable to the Earthen, but its cognitive processing power has been almost completely compromised. Force of will and a strong sense of cunning are the only driving factors in the psyche of the trogg.

Troggs? Are the troggs you mention the same as the ones in the world today?

I am unable to process your chronological reference in comparison to the recording of this data, my apologies.

The trogg retains some composition of Azeroth's various stone core compounds, but the loss of cognitive power makes this variant unacceptable to the Creators.

The trogg procreates as per a standard biomass. By default it consumes stone and anything else it can acquire, including other troggs. Cannibalism is considered unacceptable by the Creators.

You mentioned two results when the Earthen destabilize. What is the second?

Initiating visual aid representation number two.

The second resultant variance of the Earthen matrix retains many desired elements when compared to the standard subterranean matrix. The common nomenclature for this variant is "Dwarf".

This variant retains strength and stamina inherent to the Earthen. In some cases, the dwarf even exceeds the cognitive powers of the Earthen's matrix. The dwarf, however, retains none of the physical composition of Azeroth's various stone core compounds.

Dwarves! Now you're telling me that dwarves originally came from the Earthen?

The data stored in this repository does indeed correlate with your astute proclamation.

The dwarf maintains an affinity for the stone composition of Azeroth, but due to the high-stress environmental anomaly within the Earthen's synthesis matrix, the dwarf reverts to a default biomass composition as seen in the standard subterranean matrix.

Ergo, the dwarf variant does synthesize from the degeneration of the Earthen creation matrix, as you inferred with your query.

Commento di Malgayne

These dwarves are the same ones today, yes? Do the dwarves maintain any other links to the Earthen?

I am unable to process your chronological reference in comparison to the recording of this data, my apologies.

Though the dwarf maintains most of the Earthen's mental attunement to Azeroth's stone composition, the reversion back into living biomass remains the main degeneration of the matrix. Dwarves eat and procreate through means typical to other standard biomasses.

The Creators view the dwarf as an acceptable variant, worthy of genesis in its own right.

Who are the Creators?

The Creators are... the Creators.

They are the beings that seeded and shaped this world by their own design. They are the reason for this world's existence, as well as many other worlds. They are the wellspring from which Azeroth flows.

This is a lot to think about.

The Creators are cognizant of the magnitude of the information housed in this repository. Subsequently, a portable copy of the data stored here will be made available to your once you are attuned with the Discs of Norgannon.

Please consider your cursory requirements for the assimilation of this knowledge to be complete. At your leisure, access the Discs of Norgannon to begin synthesis of your discs.

I will access the discs now.

I think that the 4 platinum discs that contain all the information about the world may actually be the 4 CDs of the original game ;)

Commento di Tertius

It's a little annoying that Blizzard hasn't made some exception to the level limits in the Dungeon Finder for quests like this. 41 is the cutoff for being able to queue specifically for Uldum, and once you ding 40 all it takes is a few quests or one run of Maraudon purple to make you ding 41. Same goes for any of the mage quests that Tabetha gives you in Dustwallow Marsh.

Commento di Thottbot

Need some info to start quest.plz

Commento di Thottbot

the guy is inside the chamber with all the gold and treasures after u beat the final boss. but i just dont know what to do after i talk to that guy. It says that the quest is complete but then im stuck, i dont know who to talk to or what to activate someone help.

Commento di Thottbot

Its a q after u killed the final boss. Once u receive the platinum discs u have to turn and klick on the big "stoneghost" in the same room. Then he is explaining all kinds of stuff and gives u the platinum discs. Turn back to the stone where u picked up the q and deliver the discs: then the q is completed en u will receive 4200 XP. Thats all.

Commento di Thottbot

He also says you can click the discs again to make a copy. Do so and you will get a quest to go to TB and talk to "one of the sages". I am yet to find them. Will be back with more info as soon as I find the bastards. :)

Ah, found it. "Sage Truthseeker" is the one to talk to. 34,47 or at the western bridge building going to spirit rise. Got 5250 xp just to bring it back. Got another followup, just bring it to Bena Winterhoof, the alch trainer (middle rise, 46,33). Sage Truthseeker then has a grey ! above his head to me(lvl 44) if you go back. Not sure what quest he gives after this.

Commento di Thottbot

I killed the last boss and the door to the treasure room won't open. I killed the boss maybe 10 times but can't get in. What must I do?

Commento di Thottbot

After u kill final boss just walk into the room behind him (room with treasures).
Click on disks - smth like presentation will start. When spirit is done with his presentation, come closer and talk to him.
U'll have lots of windows chating to him. Finally, when u finish talking, turn around and come back to disks. Activate them again.
Bongo! Quest is done! Gz!

Commento di Thottbot

i got the portents of uldum quest at level 46, though cosmos says its a level 50 quest

Commento di Thottbot

Thought i'd leave a message since i didn't see a comment on where to turn the q in TB..
The name's Sage Truthseeker. He's in the house where u go onto the bridge of The Spirit Rise.

Commento di Thottbot

DO THIS QUEST! When you turn it in in Thunder Bluff she asks you to retrieve a reward voucher. There you can choose between a great mana or health potion and you get a 14 slot bag. Good XP too (3000+).

Commento di Thottbot

Sorry that's 5000+ XP!

Commento di Thottbot

Turn in of the quest is 34,47 btw. I got 7550 xp & 350 Thunderbluff Honor

Commento di Thottbot

umm what do alliance do?

Commento di Allakhazam

I completed this quest, but i think i forgot to activate the disc, i have to fight him again dont i?

Commento di Allakhazam

Lesson: Try to get this quest b/4 going in if at all possible and warn your friends too.

So where does one GET this quest from in the first place? Is the quest given inside Uldaman? if so, by whom? The information gathered isn't very clear on this. Does it have anything to do with The Watcher of Norgammon?

Edited, Mon May 16 20:19:58 2005

Commento di Allakhazam

I really dont get this :S

You have to kill the final boss of Uldaman to get quest, but then your saying we should accept quest before going in to Uldaman?

Platinum Disc Quest Information:

I read the information here and on a couple of other web sites prior to doing this quest and all the information I gathered was fuzzy at best. I have been playing this game for a long time and never completed this quest until today, with my level 45 troll priest. I will not go into the strategy that our group used to kill the final boss in there, you can read all about it here and on other sites. My goal here is to explain how to complete this quest as best I can, so that you go in there with a pretty clear idea of what you need to do to get it done.

After you kill the final boss in Uldaman, all the minions collapse and a door opens into an isolated chamber. First of all, do not forget to loot the gem from the boss if you have that quest, which has nothing to do with this platinum disc quest. When you come into the chamber you will see an alter, of sorts, with a gear symbol for your mouse icon. Click it and a quest comes up. Accept the quest.

Do not leave the chamber, you are not done.

When you do this, a stone golem ghost appears to your left. Go over and speak with him. He will have some dialog text and a string of text at the bottom with an icon, letting you know that there is more to read. Click it. Again, there is more text and another string of text at the bottom with an icon. Click it. This is going to go on for a long time. I did not count how many times you have to keep doing this, but I would say at least 10 times maybe more. You will know when your done because on your screen you will get a "complete" message.

Do not leave the chamber, you are not done.

All this was telling you to do, was to go back to the alter to retrieve the miniature platinum discs. Go back to the alter with the gear symbol and click it. There is another quest text and you click "accept". You will now have the miniature discs in your inventory.

Do not leave the chamber, you are not done.

You will notice that the alter still has a gear symbol on it. Click it. Quest text appears and choose "accept". Read it and make sure it tells you to take the discs to an NPC.

Now, you are done, as far as the chamber and Uldaman are concerned.

This final quest tells you to visit an NPC in Thunderbluff (if you are Horde). When you speak with the sage in Thunderbluff the quest is complete, but he will direct you to the NPC with your reward. After you speak with that NPC you are completely done with the quest.

The sage will also tell you he needs more time to study the discs and there is probably more to the story, but that will come later.

The most common mistakes made in not getting this quest completed are in leaving that chamber before you do all the things I have mentioned here in my explaination. My explaination may not be exact, but I think it will provide you with the information you need to help you get this one done.

Commento di Allakhazam

Epic battle vs big ugly, and after death, party members got into argument about who should roll on items dropped. I clicked on the plat discs and accepted quest in room after boss, but because grumpy leader disbanded group, I was gated out of room. PLEASE tell me the stone watcher was not the image that appeared in corner of Plat disc room, was tough enough to get there.

Any aid on where stone watcher might be would be grand.
