Description

<Astre looks from Hieron's journal to the worn letter. Their expression flickers with anger.>

Blood elves. They were our people until we embraced the Void. In their ignorance, they exiled us. Yet they are happy to ask us to fight their battles for them.

They say we threaten the Sunwell. The truth is, they are afraid of us.

Let's protect something of actual value. Kill any beasts that threaten those flowers for Hieron's tea. Silvermoon can save itself.

If you are a blood elf, the quest text is quite different and reads (with a typo):

"<Astre looks from Hieron's journal to the worn letter. Their expression flickers with anger.>

I ask you, is it right that we ren'dorei were exiled from Silvermoon? By what right do you sin'dorei deny us access to our families? To our homes?

Blood elves say we are a threat the Sunwell. This is a lie. The truth is, they are simply afraid of us. Of what they do not understand. Are you?

We're here to protect something of value. Kill any beasts that threaten those flowers for Hieron's tea. Silvermoon can save itself."

That is every comment on this page.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • Confronting ItVoidstorm · Level 88-90

    I've put the kettle on. I trust you to brew it, if you wouldn't mind. It shouldn't take more than a moment before the tea is ready to drink. Let me try it first, just in case it's poisonous. I'm the one that asked to try it.

    <Astre spends a long time in silence, thumbing through Hieron's journal.> Killed on another world, defending a city that didn't want him. There was so much we planned to do. Now... <Astre trails off, their eyes focusing on the journal's pages.> Oh. The tea recipe that Hieron was telling me about.
