Where to turn it in

1 record

The NPC or object that accepts the completed quest. Phasing and alternate-faction versions can produce more than one endpoint.

Identity and tooltip facts come from Blizzard. Relationship rows are refreshed from Wowhead's structured source tables and merged with anonymous in-game observations from WoW-God Sync. Inspect source

What To Do

Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker, then return to the turn-in NPC.

Quest Text

I make it my business to know what is going on within my district. Traditionally we use stone fiends to relay messages, but my informants have alerted me to some suspicious communications going on within the Old Gate. A venthyr has been hired to run missives between two undisclosed parties. When someone puts that much effort into concealing their identity, it can never be good. Find this courier and recover whatever missives they might be carrying.

Aman'Thul's field brief

Plan the run before you travel

Archive context

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.

Stuck?

Check the exact quest giver and turn-in records above first. Use this page's community comments for phase changes, cave entrances, spawn timing, and corrections from the live game.

Group size

No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.

Use the evidence

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.

Field notes

Objectives and map pin

Blizzard's public API publishes a quest's text and rewards but not its objectives, its own level, whether it can be shared, or any map coordinate. Nobody has synced quest 57887 yet, so there is nothing to show here rather than a guess. Running the WowGodSync addon while you play contributes those fields for everyone.

Have I done this?

Check it in game

Quest completion is stored per character on Blizzard's side and is not in the public API, so paste this in your chat box and it prints true or false for “Killing the Messenger” on the character you are logged into.

Completion check
/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(57887))
Warband-wide check (11.0+)
/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompletedOnAccount(57887))

A false also comes back for a quest id the client does not know, so it means “not recorded as complete” rather than proof the quest exists on your account.
