Notes[]
Speak with the Winter Queen:
- <The Queen regards you steadily.>
- <Deliver the Primus's Message.>
- The Winter Queen observes the message from the Primus.
- Winter Queen says: My old friend. After countless ages, our worst fears have come to pass.
- Winter Queen says: If the Banished One stirs, then we face a danger even more grave than this crippling drought.
- Winter Queen says: Come, <name>. Join me at my court and stand before the Heart of the Forest. There we shall speak further.
<Deliver the Primus's Message.>Return to the Heart of the Forest and speak with the Winter Queen again:
- <The Queen regards you steadily.>
- Yes, your majesty?
- Winter Queen says: The Heart of the Forest is vital to Ardenweald... and to the protection of the realms beyond.
- Winter Queen says: Long ago, we drew upon its magic to ensure the Maw would be inescapable. That the Banished One would remain forever bound.
- Winter Queen says: The drought has caused the Heart to wither. Its strength must be bolstered... though we have precious little anima to save our waning groves.
- Winter Queen says: An impossible choice. Yet, one that must be made for the good of the cycle.
Gossip[]
Many of the NPCs have special gossip text regarding Ysera:
- Ysera
- This place is new and yet I feel almost as if I have been here before.
- What will you do now?
- I feel that so much has happened in my absence.
- It will take time for me to be myself again, if that is even possible.
- Thank you, <name>, for saving me.
- <Stay awhile and listen.>
- Ysera says: I feel a profound connection to this realm. And yet, in my dreams I still soar above Azeroth.
- Droman Aliothe says: You are bound to the Queen, and to Ardenweald, just as I am. Yet I envy your dreams of home.
- Ysera says: The longing in your voice speaks of loss.
- Droman Aliothe says: My world was shattered beneath the hammer of the Burning Legion. There is nothing left but ashes.
- Droman Aliothe says: Now this forest is my home. As it is meant to be. We serve the cycle, and the Queen guides us.
- Ysera says: But Ardenweald, too, is under threat. I see many shadows tearing at its fringes. Clawing their way in.
- Droman Aliothe says: Aye. Though with your help, we will drive them back. Of this, I am certain.
- Ysera says: Thank you, Aliothe. I welcome your counsel, and your friendship.
- Lady Moonberry
- I hope the Queen will spare this one. I think having her around will make this place interesting.
- Ara'lon
- So many have been lost. So many have died...
- <Ara'lon trails off into silent contemplation.>
- Hunt-Captain Korayn
- The Drust grow boldder with every attack. How many more friends must we strike down before this is done?
- This Ysera fought and died for your world. I can respect that. I hope the Queen will spare her, but the Queen has many hard choices to make.
