"So this.. is what it feel like.. to be mortal?"
Darn you, Blizzard! :<
I shed a tear :(
This quest was so sad to do... after leveling 5 alts back in oldworld doing the darna lvling route, i kinda got to know the NPCs.
seeing them dead for good in the sand... :(
<The night elf turns to you as you approach and reaches for your hand>
It is too late for me. We earned our fate with our pride. Go... others may have made it. Save any that you can.

What to do
Description
It's too late for Laird, he didn't make it in time. The last wave of night elves from Auberdine attempted to escape a couple of hours ago. They stayed in their old home, clinging to the hope that it could be salvaged, but it seems they were finally forced out. I fear many of them won't make it, like Laird did not. Quickly, go down the coast to the west and find any survivors that you can. We're sending Sentinels and Hippogryphs down, but every moment counts - we need to know which ones might make it.

- Threat from the Water
Some of the survivors of this last Auberdine attack are still trying to make it up the coast to safety. We only caught word that they were coming within the last hour. I wish that we had more warning... The coastline west of us is swarming with vile spray, vicious little water elementals.
