Step Into the Light

==Objectives==
Use the Soul Mirror to aid Uther in reliving his past.
*Uther's memory entered
*Kneel before Alonsus
*Ceremony attended
*Grain investigated
*Door opened
*Arthas's followers slain (10)
*Plagued Grain destroyed (6)
==Description==
It is as I feared.
This fragment of Uther's soul was darkened by the mourneblade that slew him. His memories are shattered and twisted.
For Uther to move past his pain, to move past his grief, he must experience his past once again.
But he does not have to do this alone.
Using my soul mirror, we can aid Uther in walking through these memories. He can then come to terms with the emotions they contain. We must help him see past the distortions and understand the truths they hold.
==Rewards==
You will receive:
*
* 8,150 XP
* +75 reputation with The Ascended
==Progress==
We can learn from this.
==Completion==
His memories are twisted and convoluted.
I am sorry, Uther, but we must continue.
==Notes==
On accept:
:
Interact with the Soul Mirror in front of Uther to enter a scenario inside the Alonsus Chapel of Stratholme, set prior to the Second War (though the chapel appears darkened and ruined as it does in modern-day Stratholme, hinting that something isn't right with the memory). Players are in the shoes of Uther, and have access to the following abilities:

Inside the chapel are Archbishop Alonsus Faol, Tirion Fordring, Gavinrad the Dire, Turalyon, and Saidan Dathrohan.

While the events of the quest occur, the present-day Uther will sometimes speak offscreen to the kyrian near him in Bastion. Confusingly, both Uther in the past and Uther in the present are named "Uther the Lightbringer". In the transcript below, Uther's quotes are marked (Past) or (Present) to distinguish between the two.
: (Present)

Step in the golden circle between Gavinrad and Turalyon and use the bonus ability:

This grants the following buff for 33 seconds, stunning Uther in place:

With a burst of Maw energy, a sack of Suspicious Grain pops into the corner of the chapel, and sounds of fighting can be heard from outside the chapel. Interact with the grain and Uther gets stunned by "Fugue State" for the first of several times in the questline:
:
:
: (Present)

Uther is now reliving the Culling of Stratholme, during the Third War. Head to the back of the chapel and open the Chapel Door:
:
: (Past)

Outside, in the Elders' Square, Arthas has started his purge. Hostile Lordaeron Knights, Lordaeron Footmen, and Silver Hand Betrayers are torching the city. Numerous Stratholme Citizens are dead, or are interacting with the plagued grain. Kill the hostiles, then run up to the grain crates and use the bonus ability:

Kill ten followers and destroy six plagued grain crates, and Uther's memory jumps back to the onset of the Second War as he enters another Fugue State:
: (Present)
:Uther kneels as images of Alonsus and the others close in on him.
:
:
:
: (Past)
:
:As one, Alonsus and the others cast a holy spell on Uther.
The memory then ends automatically, depositing players back in Bastion. Turn in to Adrestes.
