Zena and are two NPCs that show up in the Venthyr Covenant feature "The Ember Court", in which you host a weekly party and try to make your guests happy.
Zena is the apple of Iven's eye, and the reason that he wants to learn to dance... and thus asks you to teach him, so he may dance with Zena without trampling her. Zena will only be at the Ember Court when Iven is present, and Iven will only attend if you select "Lost Chalice Band" as your Entertainment option -- if you do, the accompanying Events are the Lost Chalice Band instruments one (I don't remember the name of the actual event itself, but it's the one where you find three lost instruments and return them to the three band members so they can play) and the Iven Dance Class one (again, not the actual name).

In the Iven Dance Class event, Iven tells the player that he sucks at dancing, which is upsetting to him because he's totally into this chick Zena and wants to dance with her, but is afraid he will embarass himself and she won't be into him. So he asks if you'll teach him to dance. But then he says it won't feel right if you're not a Venthyr, or something along those lines, and he ~a bit creepily~ asks if he can turn you "into Zena's likeness" while you teach him.
You comply, and thus begins IMO the worst, most confusing to figure out event in Ember Court (and I love Ember Court). The buttons and what they do are not at all clear regarding which of his quotations/sentiments they should be matched with. It also take like 2 full minutes, so if you've got Ambassador's Reserve and you saved this event for last (like I always do), you may want to pop a few of these before starting the dance...

But after you finally finish, Zena swoops in, asking if she may have a dance with this fine gentleman, asking him if he could please teach her a couple of those "new moves, such as the 'wildly-crashing-into-people' one that looked so fun", Of course he obliges, and you finish the event.

The redeeming quality of this event, though, is that when you finish the event, you can actually see Iven and Zena dancing for the remainder of your party, in the middle of the throng of floaty dancers at the center of your Court! Even better, they will occasionally crash into the other floaty dancers, with an audible "crash" and a little puff of smoke... and directly after they "recover" themselves back to the center, you see little hearts appear above their heads!

It's all super cute. I just wish the actual event were more straightforward.

Also, I just now discovered that the actual sound files for these female Venthyr are actually called "Vampire_Female_Greeting", "Vampire_Female_Pissed". The male Venthyr have different names -- none that I've found use the word "Vampire".
If it wasn't blatantly obvious before... well, now there's proof. There's legitimately vampires in WoW, and they ~~masquerade~~ soiree as "Venthyr". :P
