==Description==
Champion, is it you? A thousand years it has been since I was entrusted the shard and it is at my darkest hour that one should rise to relieve me of it... But what would tragedy be without cruelty?

==Notes==
*It is advised that players talk to Vaelastraz to pick up this quest before the event is started. There is a very short period of time after someone starts the event while Vaelastraz is still friendly if it is still necessary to pick up the quest.
*After accepting the quest, Nefarius will yell: 
*Some time later may yell the following:

*Failing to kill Nefarian within 5 hours results in looting From the Desk of Lord Victor Nefarius from the dragon (provided you still kill him) instead of the red shard.
