Description

The Tears of Elune are a sacred artifact, protected by my order for thousands of years. I tell you this so that you may understand the gravity of your request.

That said, Ysera is noble and wise and I trust in her guidance. You will find the tears in a vault at the eastern edge of the temple grounds.

Proceed with caution though, as that area has been overrun by demons.

I got there and couldn't interact with any objects. You're actually just supposed to run up to it and a scene triggers. If you're stuck and can't figure out what to do next, just run out of the little pagoda and back in and you should trigger the scene.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Temple of EluneVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    Cenarius is in danger. If his condition is not reversed soon, he will be lost to the Nightmare that threatens the Emerald Dream. To spare him that fate, we must have the Tears of Elune - the same relic you were sent here to retrieve. Elune's temple is not far. Go there. Find Lyanis.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Root CauseVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    The massive roots of Shaladrassil are spreading a horrible corruption throughout the forest. If we are to save Val'sharah, we will need to find a way to stop the encroachment of the world tree. If you bring me enough corrupted root samples, I may be able to discover their secrets.
