To complete this quest you need to help Forgelite Sophone with her business.
First, take the box of raw materials neaby and follow Sophone to the forge. Place it near the flame.
Next step is to light both Anima Forge Vents - left and right of the forge.
And finally make some clean up - there are two broken glass parts, two broken barrels and unfinished weapon on the table.

Comment by craptola

I wanna know whos idea it was to make a quest where you just clean someone's house.

Comment by Kiyanavasala

Just fill the hole, hole-filler.

Comment by aoeu

Should I pick up your dry cleaning, too?

Comment by madness657

So 1 hour ago, I was fighting alongside Thrall, Jaina, Baine etc. as the hero of azeroth, rescuing the leader of the alliance. And now I'm shovelling s*** for some avatar who wants her house cleaning..... Come on Blizzard....

Comment by silkfire

I thought the stewards were for cleaning and doing chores? No? Ah, my mistake, Sophone...

Comment by Coolmama

Sometimes the question mark is above her head but she doesn't respond. Simply walk out of the room and enter again and the quest will likely finish.

Light the Forge, Forgelite

Help Forgelite Sophone.

	Carry raw materials (1)
	Clear the vents (2)
	Tidy Up (5)

Description

I think we have the materials I will need to light the forge, at long last. I am afraid the place is in a state of disrepair. Between failed attempts at working without anima and simple neglect, I cannot hope to work the forge as it currently stands. I would very much appreciate your help to get the place in order while I coax the forge to life once more.
