QUESTING GUIDE:
1.  THE UNSEEN BLADE (Scenario)
• Accept the quest, THE UNSEEN BLADE, from GARONA HALFORCEN at coords 36.8, 52.6 (ELWYNN FOREST).

Stage 1 - On High Alert
• Travel northwest to just outside the gates of STORMWIND CITY, at coords 32.2, 49.7.
• Listen to MASTER MATHIAS SHAW converse with GARONA HALFORCEN.
• Activate/maintain your STEALTH and proceed into STORMWIND CITY.

Stage 2 - Live Drop
• Travel down the Valley of Heroes, into the STORMWIND CITY Trade District (toward coords 66.1, 76.8), and use SAP on any of the STORMWIND CITY PATROLLER mobs.  They are identifiable with the blue-green "eye" above their heads, while you are under STEALTH.
• • The key is to target these mobs well outside of both your and their range, and use SAP as soon as they enter range.  It should be noted that they can see through your STEALTH at almost the same time as when SAP is available.
• • If you don't SAP them in time, they will use a HOOKED NET, and break through your STEALTH.  If that happens, activate VANISH.
• After reaching 66, 76, proceed into Trias Cheese shop, and go upstairs.
• Click on the SMOKE BOMBS, located on the table near ELLING TRIAS.

Stage 3 - Tricks of the Trade
• Activate your STEALTH, and go downstairs.
• Travel northwest to the Trade District Auction House at 61.6, 72.3.
• Go inside the Auction House/Trader's Hall and use the SMOKE BOMB, you were provided.

Stage 4 - To Catch a Cultist
• Go outside, and use PICK POCKET on a SUSPICIOUS CITY GUARD until you find the CODED MESSAGE.  After you receive it, READ THE CODED MESSAGE.

Stage 5 - Rendezvous
• Travel northeast, into the Old Town District to coords 73.9, 61.7.
• Cut through the alley, continuing to 74.7, 55.9.
 
Stage 6 - We Need Answers
• Click on the door to the tavern to pick the lock, and go inside.
• Kill the VEILED WITNESS first, followed next with the pair of VEILED FANATIC mobs.
• After killing the first group, you will face off against SISTER ALTHEA EBONLOCKE and her pets: GLOOM and SHADETALON.

Stage 7 - On the Trail
• After killing SISTER ALTHEA EBONLOCKE, activate your STEALTH and exit the building.  Proceed northwest toward 70.1, 52.9.
• SAP the nearby IRONFORGE RIFLEMAN, as he can also see through your STEALTH.
• Once you reach the canals, turn right, proceeding to coords 72.4, 47.2, in the direction of the Keep.
• Use SHADOWSTEP on LUCAS SEVERING, but don't attack him!  Instead, continue northeast, and up the stairs, to 82.6, 29.8.
• Remember to SAP any guards that can see through your stealth, but now also avoid the semi-stealth Explosive Traps located on the ground.
• Enter the Keep, continuing northeast, toward the throne to 84.6, 32.1.
• Use SHADOWSTEP on the FATIGUED RITUALIST.

Stage 8 - Marked for Death
• After the cut-scene, defeat MELRIS MALAGAN.

• After killing the Herald, GARONA HALFORCEN will drop her daggers on the ground, for you to pick up.
• Pick up THE KINGSLAYERS, to claim your artifact weapon.
