The first protodrakes you kill are called 'Not Friends' and the deer you can eat to restore health are just called "Food." These names reflect Ysera's more animalistic thinking as a protodrake before the Titans made her a true dragon. Kill the amount to move on to the next area.

After that, you come across a vision of a green dragon named "Daughter." This is Merithra of the Dream, the current leader of the Green Dragonflight who we helped in BFA during the Coalesced Essences storyline. She laments that she still feels lost without her mom to guide her.

There's also "Adopted Son," aka Cenarius. Cenarius is the son of Malorne the White Stag and Elune, but was raised by Ysera, who taught him how to enter the Emerald Dream and care for nature.

"Dear Friend" and "Student" are clearly Tyrande and Malfurion, both of whom acknowledge that Tyrande did what needed to be done by killing Ysera when she was corrupted, but lament that she had to die.

Now the spooky stuff, her fears. You see "Abandoned Whelps" that needed to be comforted. These represent how Ysera thinks she left behind the baby whelps who still needed her when she died. The undead drakes are all called what she fears. "Weakness," "Corruption," "The Unknown," "Extinction" and such. There is also one giant bone drake behind the ridge that symbolizes her greatest fears realized: "Azeroth's Demise."

You don't get anything for killing Azeroth's Demise, who has a nasty frontal cone and a TON of health, but you can try if you want.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Caring for the CaretakersArdenweald · Level 10-58

    The Drust attacked so quickly, they captured some of the spirit tenders of this grove! It's not an easy job to do, between the drought and monsters and everything. I should know. Please, see if you can get them out of whatever terrible magic those invaders have cast on them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Visions of the Dreamer: The BetrayalArdenweald · Level 10-58

    I sense that in the spirit's vision, she struggles with the memory of a betrayal that is truly profound. Someone as close to her as a brother, turned to an enemy. Go to the second Dreamshrine in the Basin, and help vanquish the pain of this nightmare.
