(Quest) <Speak with Shandris and Tyrande.>
An in-engine cinematic plays:
- Shandris and Tyrande walk uphill from the moonwell.
- Shandris Feathermoon: Such beauty. Such tranquility. More kaldorei settle here every day.
- Shandris pauses to look at her adoptive mother for a moment, before looking back out at Bel'ameth.
- Shandris Feathermoon: After so many years of strife, Bel'ameth offers rest and comfort.
- Tyrande Whisperwind: This village welcomes all who wish to dwell here.
- Tyrande looks at Shandris for a moment.
- Tyrande Whisperwind: But it shall not be our only home.
- They start walking again.
- Tyrande Whisperwind: Hyjal, Val'sharah, Ashenvale... These are sacred places to us. We shall protect them forever more.
- The stop at the moonwell again, facing one another.
- Tyrande Whisperwind: And one day, when life blossoms again upon its ashen shores... we will return to Teldrassil and build anew.
- Shandris smiles. Noticing something, she looks away from Tyrande and lets out a gasp. This catches Tyrande's attention, who turns around to look the same direction, letting out a gasp of her own and laughs gently. In the distance is Malfurion Stormrage, back from Ardenweald. With a sigh of relief, Tyrande takes off running to her husband and he steps forward. With a leap, she jumps into his arms and they share a kiss, wrapping each other in a hug. They look into each others eyes for a beat, then close their eyes and hug tighter.
- A few moments later, Tyrande and Malfurion open their eyes and look at Shandris, who has stopped a few yards away, with her hands held together in front of her. Malfurion and Tyrande open their arms, beckoning Shandris, who obliges and moves in to share a three-way hug.
On complete:
- Shandris Feathermoon says: Father, we have so much to tell you...
- Malfurion Stormrage says: As I slumbered within Ardenweald, Ysera let me dream through her eyes. I saw the courage you showed defending Amirdrassil.
- Malfurion Stormrage says: I am so proud of you both. And of all the heroes of Azeroth who joined together for this cause.
- Tyrande Whisperwind says: Though we will never forget the past, it is time to look forward.
- Shandris Feathermoon says: Our people will be pleased to have both of you leading them into that future.
- Tyrande Whisperwind says: No, my beloved daughter. I think we will tarry here in Bel'ameth a while.
- Tyrande Whisperwind says: I believe we have earned some time alone together.
- Malfurion Stormrage says: That we have, my love.
- Shandris Feathermoon says: But our people need--
- Tyrande Whisperwind says: They have all they need in you, child.
- Malfurion Stormrage says: You have grown into a wise leader, Shandris. Within you beats the heart of the kaldorei people.
- Malfurion Stormrage says: Trust your instincts. And if you have need of us, you know where we will be.
- Shandris Feathermoon says: Thank you. For your faith in me. For... everything.
- Tyrande Whisperwind says: Now come. I want to show you a spot that would be perfect for our home.
- Malfurion Stormrage says: I do hope there is room for a garden...
