PTR Posted 2024/04/11 at 4:57 PM by DiscordianKitty

Warning: 10.2.7 Spoilers AheadAn Uncommon RequestTears of TeldrassilKelestra says: My family had gathered that day to celebrate my elder sister. She had just completed her training as a Druid of the Talon.
Kelestra says: We lived in the village of Dolanaar, high in the branches of Teldrassil. We had heard war might be coming but we never thought...
Kelestra says: We were told we had to evacuate. But there was so much chaos. So much fire. Even now, what I remember most was the smell.
Kelestra says: The path to Darnassus was cut off by the blaze. My sister instead led us east, to the edge of the crown of Teldrassil. She had a plan.
Kelestra says: She wanted us to jump from the tree. She would use her powers over wind to keep us aloft and glide down to the shore below.
Kelestra says: But something went wrong. As we drifted along, she was struck by a burning branch. It ignited her clothing and engulfed her in flames.
Kelestra says: She lost control of her magic. We all plummeted into the sea below, I was badly hurt in the fall, but I managed to survive.
Kelestra says: The rest of my family... was not so lucky.
Kelestra says: Over timet I eventually recovered the remains of my parents and brother, I never found my sister.
Kelestra says: Her grave is likely at the bottom of the Veiled Sea.Kelestra says: But sometimes I wonder if my sister might have survived the jump off Teldrassil.
Kelestra says: If anyone could survive that fall, it would be Koroleth.
Rashan Stillbrook says: Koroleth was your sister?! She was a Primalist and a traitor! She deserved her fate!
Kelestra says: That... that can't be true...
Rashan Stillbrook says: If you don't believe met go speak with the other Primalist traitors at the Twilight Watchtower. They will tell you the truth.Finding KorolethKelestra says: Sister... you will be reunited with our family soon.Player ChoiceMalfurion Stormrage says: Kelestra, your sister Koroleth fought for the Primalists, and her actions caused pain and sorrow for us and our allies.
Malfurion Stormrage says: However, she did not escape the consequences of those actions. She paid for them with her life.
Malfurion Stormrage says: Koroleth could not find peace in life. But perhaps under the boughs of a new world tree, she may find some in eternal rest.
Malfurion Stormrage says: Kelestra, you may bury your sister with the rest of your family.
Kelestra says: Thank you. Both of you. You have given me the peace I thought would never come.
Rashan Stillbrook says: Hmph, My brother died fighting Koroleth. Where is his peace? Where is his justice?!
Kelestra says: <name>, when you have a moment, please come see me at my family's resting place.Malfurion Stormrage says: Kelestra. your sister Koroleth fought for the Primalists, and her actions caused pain and sorrow for us and our allies.
Malfurion Stormrage says: I cannot in good conscience allow her to be buried here, on ground that we have shed so much blood to protect.
Malfurion Stormrage says: It would be a disservice to all those who fought and died against the Primalists to stop their machinations.
Malfurion Stormrage says: Kelestra, I am sorry, but you must lay your sister to rest elsewhere.
Kelestra says: My heart aches that my family will never be united again.
Kelestra says: <Name>, when you are done with these people, come find me on the beach where you found my sister.
Rashan Stillbrook says: You have done the right thing, Archdruid. It was not pleasant, it was not easy, but it was right.Satchel of Stormborn SeedsAftermathThank you, <name>, for all that you have done for me.
I do not dispute what Koroleth did or the harm that she caused. But I never knew Koroleth the primalist.
I knew Koroleth the druid, who dedicated her life to the balance and harmony of nature.
I knew Koroleth the night elf, who would have given her life to protect Teldrassil and its people.
I knew Koroleth. my sister. who would take me to the docks of Ruth'eran Village as a child to watch the ships sail by, and on the way home, buy a basket of Tundra Berries for me to munch on.
That is the Koroleth I will remember.I don't know what you said to Malfurion, but thank you for trying <name>.
<KeIestra wipes away tears.>
Since my sister is unwanted at Amirdrassil, I decided to lay her to rest here. where you found her.
I know that my sister has wronged our people... but she's gone. Must they punish her for eternity? Can they not let go of their anger? Their hatred?
<Kelestra clenches her fists so tightly, they begin to tremble.>

Comment by Shnoidzaw, i was hoping we get to kill someone, one last elf on the pyre before we go into the world soul saga.
oh well.Comment by Mafia1882Even MORE night elf focused content.. For what like, 3 expansions in a row already?

There are other races in the game, you know.Comment by EuAmoPinguinswow, that's incredible, more story content for night elves.
while the other races are completely in limboComment by ArjisajI applaud Blizz for letting us make a choice here. I would have expected them to be all hugs and forgiveness by now, so giving us the option is really nice.Comment by ChaxtonI mean, even if she was a villain, it's only right to be laid to rest with your family. You're only garbage when alive, after all. I don't care about the lore or these literal who characters, but family has to stick together whenever possible, even if one member is estranged. We spent too long learning that the afterlife fixes you, makes you crazy, or deletes you, after all. 1/3 chance that the family gets together in the afterlife.

Siding with the sister is the right thing to do lore-wise. It sucks for the other guy knowing the murderer of his family was buried in a sacred place, but it'd be the same for him if he wasn't allowed to bury his dead family under the same circumstance.Comment by darkyxyzit's better if they stick to night elves because this way they can't ruin other racesComment by kraelicI got on here to vent a little about the constant Night Elf content. It’s good to see I’m not alone. I’m also pretty tired of Night Elf content to be honest. Just more stuff I won’t waste any time on.Comment by Cyynaaw, i was hoping we get to kill someone, one last elf on the pyre before we go into the world soul saga.

This soft garbage is so weak.

Shame the horde has had the coolest characters in the game killed off and/or ruined with bad writing... meanwhile we have lameo Malfurion and psycho Tyrande still around being insufferable on top of all the other garbagetier alliance leaders each one lamer than the last and the horde has been left with a bunch of losers besides Lor'themar who is the only person fit to be a leader at all out of all the races.

God what a bunch of garbage lol maybe we can see some better writing and movement toward cooler horizons with Metzen back? then again he was around for quite a lot of the garbage so my faith isn't nearly restored, especially with this crap still being released.Comment by CyynaEven MORE night elf focused content..

Oh wait.
More elves.

Can't appease these people. Gotta go back to a troll raid / dungeon every expansion I guess.Comment by DeVeteranSylvanas was right to try to burn all these idiots to death. This soft garbage is so weak.
