Description

Thanks to your efforts the temple is safe, for now. But the Tears of Elune are stolen and Shaladrassil, the world tree that once protected this land, is now an instrument in the hands of our enemy. The Emerald Dream itself is being overrun by Nightmare. The hearts of our people falter, their faith tested like never before. Return to Ysera with my report, {name}, such as it is. I shall plead with Elune with what time I have left here. May we somehow yet prevail.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Mark of the DemonVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    The demonic rune glows in your hand, emanating dark power. A single word, inscribed in demon tongue, glows coldly... ...GRAVAX...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Malfurion's FuryVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    The loss of Cenarius to the nightmare is a devastating blow to us all. Though Malfurion's rage is justified, his hatred of Xavius has burned for centuries and I fear that his blind rage will be used as a weapon against him.
