The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
While doing this quest [item=201439] will drop. You can combine 5 to create [item=201437]. Do not open [item=201437] until you've left through the portal and picked up the next quest in the chain Our Full Strength. If you're on that quest and you open it, it will contain the quest item [item=193221].
Also contains some greys. Collecting and opening multiple chests just gives you more greys and more of the quest item, but you only need one.
If you proceed to next step without a quest item, more will drop during the next quest.
The room you fight in is the same room you get teleported to after you defeat Xavius in the Emerald Nightmare raid but in reverse (during the quest you get teleported to about where you leave the dream in the raid and where you exit is where you get in). Interestingly, in the cave where you activate one of the anchors, is a patch of flowers where the Remnant of the Void-flower used to be.

What to do
Description
We mustn't delay. I can feel the energies of rebirth surging in me. I am ready to cross back into the Emerald Dream. From the realms of Death into Life. Follow me through the gate of Awakening, and we will race across the Dreamway to Ancient Bough. I expect there will be some resistance within, so be on your guard.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Storm's Rest
Let us go into the Grove of Awakening. The Winter Queen is the only one who can transfer this bond from Ysera to me. I have faith that she will agree. She aided Ysera in a time of desperate need, and now Ysera can help us in turn.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Thin the Veil
There must be a way to lower the barrier from within this grove. I sense several points around us that strengthen it. If you can deactivate enough of those, we should be able to lower it the rest of the way so the others may join us.
