Objectives

Protect Tyrande while she holds her vigil at the Ancient Moonwell.

• Meet Tyrande in Shadowfen
• Guard Tyrande During her Vigil

Description

Xavius led Ysera past here, but their destination is unclear. This twisted wickedness smothers my mind!

These refugees tell of an ancient Moonwell hidden in the ruins of their home. If it somehow resisted this corruption...

I will beg of Elune a vision to give me direction. With her light, I may find my husband yet.

He is still alive, but the rest remains to be seen.

Notes

Tyrande will be waiting for you at the moonwell in Shadowfen. She will walk up to the pool once you initiate the event, during which you will need to defend her from Wormtalon Huntresses and eventually the Wormtalon Matriarch herself.

Tyrande Whisperwind

I will need to focus on the vision to understand its message. Guard me while I do this, <name>.

 Yes, Tyrande.

Tyrande Whisperwind says: Do not let anything disturb my meditation.

Tyrande Whisperwind says: I see... swirling red mist. Gnashing teeth.

Tyrande Whisperwind says: Malfurion! He is in pain! Keep fighting, my love!

Tyrande Whisperwind says: Such malevolent laughter... Xavius, you cruel creature! I am coming for you!

Tyrande Whisperwind says: His location is still unclear, but he lives.

Tyrande Whisperwind says: We must go deeper into the nightmare. Wherever he is, peril is already upon him!

Description

Xavius led Ysera past here, but their destination is unclear. The Nightmare smothers my mind!

If it is uncorrupted, it will give me the focus I need. By Elune's light, we will find my husband yet.

Meet me at the Moonwell at once, <class>.

Tyrande

I will need to focus on the vision to understand its message.

We have had our differences in the past, but this is bigger than both of us. Can I trust you?

 By my honor you will come to no harm, priestess.
