Maw of Souls: Retrieving the Svalnguard
A verified Blizzard quest record. Use the archive brief, rewards, and linked research to finish it without losing your place.
What To Do
Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker, then return to the turn-in NPC.
Quest Text
The Svalnguard was once Odyn's shield; it is said that it hid the Halls of Valor from the endless darkness below his realm. Helya, who was cast from the shining halls long ago, stole the Svalnguard and keeps it on her accursed ship, the Naglfar. You must board the Naglfar, defeat Helya, and retrieve the Svalnguard - it will make a worthy tribute for Odyn.
Plan the run before you travel
Check the quest area, faction, and level range before you travel. If this quest is part of a chain, finish nearby campaign quests in the same zone first.
Open the Wowhead page for coordinates, NPC spawn comments, cave entrances, and player-submitted route notes. WoW-God links out instead of copying community comments.
No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.
Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, then use the exact-title references in the archive for NPC or object coordinates. Add a correction below if the live game differs from this record.
