I'll say it first. This questline was absolute garbage from start to finish. Focuses on two characters no one remembers or cares about, instead of focusing on the the Night Elf people as a whole. Maiev is as insufferable as ever. Go into a barrow den -> slap a few demons -> congratulations, you're done.
I was so excited for this questline, especially after how good the Orc and Human heritage quests were, but this was so terrible and disappointing I don't think they could have cared less when they were writing it. Once again Night Elves are getting shafted. I can only hope 10.2 will make up for it, but its extremely apparent that this was made with minimal effort and care. Way to go Blizz.

Some dude became one of the Warden...
How does this relate to Heritage Armor and NE in general? Who the hell knowsWhy, Blizz?
My only disagreement with this post is that I actually do remember the character and the quest line. And it did kind of bring back some memories from vanilla WoW. But, I still agree that the quest line wasn't the greatest work...

Description
Today is a day of celebration, {name}. And a day of new beginnings. Arko'narin and Lysander have reminded me that the kaldorei are no strangers to change. I forget, sometimes, how long I was away, and just how much my kin have progressed in my absence. <Maiev looks up to the sky.> Lysander celebrates this day, but your service also deserves to be recognized. Come, {name}.
