Alysra greets you before the yelling and the hurting start.

It is you again, <class>.

Is something wrong?

<Alysra's tail flinches, and her eyes dart back and forth under their lids.>


You then make your accusation.

You turned Fandral Staghelm over to the Twilight's Hammer. Why have you betrayed the dragonflights?


Alysra demonstrates how crazy she has become by yelling at you and attacking.

No, NO! I didn't "betray" the dragonflights. We were all betrayed. Ysera was lost in a dream while this whole world came undone.


You make with the stabbity/burninating/decaptation of your class' choice, and then the Druids of the Flame show up-- lots of them.

We are too late! They killed her, as Fandral predicted.


Ohshi, Leyara's crashing this party too.

No, the Firelord has already claimed this one for his own. Do you doubt his power?


The quest completes as Alystra's remains burst into a flame, and a... fiery chicken rises from the ashes. Why hello there, Alysrazor.

Reborn in flame!


Said fiery chicken flies off into the distance. Yes, you're letting it fly off: it has 7 million hitpoints and you're some shmuck who showed up for an easy 20 gold. She's some raid's problem now.

Note: the management is not responsible for explaining how a green dragon can be transformed into an Anzu that is on fire and uses the protodrake skeleton for animations. Admittedly, if we ever got to see an animation besides the ridiculous flapping to stay airborne and the even more ridiculous rear-back-and-flap, it'd probably look AWESOME.

Read all the hints but still kept getting killed (3 times), druid lvl 85 solo. I hid behind several different pillars, even jumped over side smack up against wall and she still got me. My error was picking pillars that were around her. Trick was to hide in the pavilion behind at least the third pillar back, this kept her unable to see me in any way shape or form. Popped out to renew a couple spells when she wasn't blowing fire at me, was amazingly easy once I figured out location.

Description

Fandral Staghelm was kept prisoner here in Hyjal. It was the green dragon Alysra - one of my very own! - who was in charge of keeping Fandral secure. We can only conclude that the Twilight's Hammer has gotten to her. You must confront her, {name}. Destroy her if you must - I cannot bear to see it. She was last seen in the Ruins of Lar'donir, west of the World Tree.
