Emerald Dragonshrine
The Emerald Dragonshrine is a green valley to the west of New Hearthglen, along the southern coast of Dragonblight. The green dragonflight's dragonshrine is the only dragonshrine to not be ravaged or under attack by the Scourge. This is due to the powerful seeds held by the Emerald Lashers.
Due to a misunderstanding by Ysera, when Nishera the Garden Keeper requested that she aid the other dragons against the Scourge, all the shrine's defenders attacked anyone not of the green dragonflight.[1] Perched at the southern end of the dragonshrine lied Alystros the Verdant Keeper who was in charge of the dragonshrine's aerial defenses. By killing the skytalons, adventurers angered Alystros and had to defeat him so that he may be reborn, hopefully without the confusion the Emerald Nightmare has caused.[2]
In the center of the shrine once lied a transparent Ysera, the Emerald Queen, quietly sleeping. Like other dragonshrines, the ancient bodies of the green dragonflight's ancestors can be found here.
