You get this quest instead of Goddess Watch Over You if you haven't completed the main Val'sharah questline. To continue, you'll have to do the following quests:


  2. Cenarius, Keeper of the Grove, starts from Malfurion Stormrage in Lorlathil. You can get there by choosing Val'sharah on your scouting map.

  4. Nature's Call

  6. Archdruid of the Vale
    -> Dishonored
    -> The Corruptor
    -> The Nightmare Lord
    Archdruid of the Claw
    -> Frenzied Furbolgs / Totemic Call
    -> Awakening the Archdruid
    -> Out of the Dream / The Demons Below
    -> Entangled Dreams
    Archdruid of Lore
    -> Solid as a Rock / Death to the Witchmother

  8. Return to the Grove / Return to the Grove / Return to the Grove (depending on which Archdruid you finished last; they should all count as completed if you did one.)

  10. The Emerald Queen

  12. The Temple of Elune

  14. Tears for Fears

  16. The Die is Cast

  18. Malfurion's Fury

  20. To Old Friends (use the Extra Action Button to kill stuff)

  22. The Demon's Trail

  24. Love Lost

  26. Dark Side of the Moon

  28. Heart of the Nightmare

  30. Reading the Leaves / Given to Corruption

  32. Softening the Target

  34. Close Enough to Touch

  36. The Fate of Val'sharah

  38. The Tears of Elune (starts right behind Tyrande, turned in at the Chamber of the Guardian beneath Dalaran)

After turning in the last quest, Goddess Watch Over You will be completed and you can turn it in at the Violet Citadel in Dalaran.

If you're wondering whether it's worth the effort: The whole "Light's Heart"/Illidan storyline is very interesting lore wise and it continues with a new quest in your order hall every week or so, giving a few 825/840 pieces along the way. I don't know if there will be a big end reward. (Only talking about the Light's Heart stuff, completing Val'sharah will obviously give rep and an 800 chest piece.)

This quest is only needed to complete the Light's Heart/Illidan questline, it doesn't gate anything else. I got a paladin to 110 without obtaining a single pillar of creation. Completed her class hall, recruited all available champions, completed the Broken Shore, obtained her class mount and moved onto Argus without having done this quest.

Description

I may have found a "key" to unlock Light's Heart, {name}. I was going through some ancient cosmology tomes when I stumbled upon a passage indicating that the prime naaru may have been created by Elune during the great ordering of Light and Shadow. If Elune did create Xe'ra, then it stands to reason that we could use the Tears of Elune to unlock the secrets of Light's Heart. Now it falls upon you to recover the Tears of Elune from Val'sharah.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Light's ChargeLevel 10-45

    "You did not ask for this burden, but it is what fate has deemed." Turalyon's haunting last words still echo in my mind. I worry about the fate of the draenei... about the fate of my friend, Velen; but we must remain vigilant, <name>! For now, Light's Heart remains under your watchful eye.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In the House of Light and ShadowDalaran · Level 10-45

    The Tears of Elune are ready for you, <name>. I am uncertain what to do from here. Take the relic back to your order hall and try to use it on Light's Heart. Maybe make them touch? Honestly your guess is as good as mine. Let's hope this works!
