Blood of the Black Dragon Champion

You will pay the General a visit, yes, but not as one of the Black Dragonflight.

The latent amulet merely needs the blood of the General in order to become active. One of their crude failsafe mechanisms.

Return to Blackrock Spire and destroy Drakkisath. Bring his blood back here and I shall activate the key to Onyxia's lair.
