Personality

Elysona tries her best to be polite, but that's not always an option.

Like all blood elves, Elysona holds a strong hatred for the Lich King and Scourge for what they did to her people. These feelings also bleed into her relations with the Forsaken. While there isn't a deep hatred, Elysona feels sickened at their recent tactics in the Alliance-Horde War.

However, the common Sin'dorei feelings of contempt towards other elves isn't felt by Elysona. She in fact looks up to the high elves for not losing their culture as the blood elves have, and finds the night elf culture and history extremely fascinating. However, when it comes to elven mutations (such as naga and satyr), expect a cold welcome. But then, who doesn't hate those races?

History

Elysona was a student in archaeology at Falthrien Academy for a number of years, interested especially in the history of her people going back to the time of the Kaldorei Empire.

Shortly after graduation, Elysona turned to the Reliquary, but disagreed strongly with their views and moved to Winterspring as a solo archaeologist. Elysona would eventually enroll in the Blood Knights of Quel'thalas.

To combat her addiction to magic, Elysona marked her arms with demonic runes, feeding her energy. Now, however, the Sunwell is restored, and the runes are harming her greatly. Without any obvious cure, Elysona must temporarily calm the burning sensation of the demon energies by absorbing fel or arcane magic.

On an assignment in Outland to defeat any remnants of the Illidari, Elysona was exposed to the arcane energies of the Twisting Nether, and the pain from the runes became even harsher. Disobeying orders and leaving Outland behind, she now searches Azeroth for knowledge that can aid her. And she is willing to gain that knowledge from anyone, from the Scarlet Crusade to the Steamwheedle Cartel to the Alliance.

Elysona is still greatly interested in archaeology, and spends her free time looking for ancient elven artifacts.

Journal

Entry 1

The demons have come and gone, and the world has rediscovered Kalimdor.

In the aftermath of the Third War, I have moved to the mountain of Winterspring, near to many regions covered by my ancestors, the night elves. I disagree with the Reliquary's views on archaeology, and so I shall make a living digging here and in the areas around.

The orcs have formed a city not far from here, and word reaches me that Prince Kael'thas has led a revolution in thinking.

We are, now and forever, sin'dorei. Children of the Blood.

Entry 2

Hunger... I need magic...

Years have passed since the Sunwell was destroyed. Our people have joined the Horde and followed the Prince to Outland. He can find a cure.

But I cannot wait...

The goblins of Everlook have somehow gotten their hands on scrolls from Outland. Burning Legion scrolls. I know enough Eredun to translate some.

I believe I have found an answer to my addiction.

Entry 3

How absolutely glorious I feel!

While my people are dealing with a magic addiction, I have engraved ancient demonic runes onto my arms, succesfully holding it off.

They glow a sickly fel green, it would be best not to let others see these...

Nonetheless, I feel better than I ever have before. With these runes providing a constant magical source, who needs the Sunwell or Prince Kael'thas?

Sidenote: Fel magic occassionally surges through my arms and out my sword as a blast of shadow.

Entry 4

The Sunwell is restored!

The traitor prince Kael'thas summoned the Burning Legion's Kil'jaeden to our world, but heroes forced him back. I only wish that I had been among their number!

And yet, while we should be celebrating...

The runes on my arms are causing me too much pain, now that the magic of the Sunwell courses through me once again. Why didn't I expect this?!

To hold off the pain, I am forced to absorb Fel or arcane magic as my people were until recently. Ironic that in my bid to provent an addiction I have caused one.

I should have known not to tamper with demonic arts.

Entry 5

I cannot handle this pain any longer!

The Light... I need the comfort of the Light to guide me along this path.

The Blood Knights will no doubt provide that Light.

I will join them. I will make it to the top. I will achieve the Light and find a way to remove these runes.

Entry 6

I have been assigned by the order to cleanse Outland of demons that remain behind from the Alliance and Horde's time there.

Hmph, sounds simple enough. We defeated the masters of the Illidari easily, so they are in disarray. The Burning Legion is the real threat, and if I can find some way to close off their portals...

No doubt I won't be away for very long.

Entry 7

The runes are growing more painful by the hour as I continue work in Outland, clearing it of Demon remnants. How foolish of me not to expect this when in a world exposed to the Twisting Nether!

I need to find a cure, even if it means abandoning my post and returning to Azeroth.

The Scarlet Crusade has fallen on dark times, and it's no secret that their rulers commune with Fel forces.

Perhaps I can find some form of cure in the library at their monastery in Tirisfal Glades...

Entry 8

Nothing at the Scarlet Monastery. I need to go deeper.

Further into Lordaeron, the Eastern Plaguelands. Stratholme, theScarlet Enclave, Tyr's Hand. Certainly one of them must have a clue.

If the Blood Knight leaders find out I'm not in Outland, it could be very, very bad for me. Luckily I still have a few more months of duty.

Entry 9

I've been found out!

I should have known that the Argent Crusade and Blood Knights would communicate with each other.

I have been suspended from duty for the time being, but...

...But all is not lost. A group calling themselves "Children of the Blade" have taken me in.

Am I using them...? I'm not quite sure. I may not have enough of an option.

They can help me find a cure, the Forsaken seems kind enough.

-== Objectives ==
+==Personality==
+Elysona tries her best to be polite, but that's not always an option.
-Go to the top of the [[Ata'mal Terrace]] in [[Shadowmoon Valley]] and obtain the [[Heart of Fury]]. Return to [[Akama]] at the [[Warden's Cage]] in Shadowmoon Valley when you've completed this task.
+Like all [[blood elves]], Elysona holds a strong hatred for the [[Lich King]] and [[Scourge]] for what they did to her people. These feelings also bleed into her relations with the [[Forsaken]]. While there isn't a deep hatred, Elysona feels sickened at their recent tactics in the [[Alliance-Horde War]].
-Item Needed:
-*1 x [[Heart of Fury]]
+However, the common Sin'dorei feelings of contempt towards other elves isn't felt by Elysona. She in fact looks up to the [[high elves]] for not losing their culture as the blood elves have, and finds the [[night elf]] culture and history extremely fascinating. However, when it comes to elven mutations (such as [[naga]] and [[satyr]]), expect a cold welcome. But then, who doesn't hate those races?
-== Details ==
+==History==
-The fight will occur at coordinates 71,35. There are 3 elites who are channeling the Heart. If you attack them, they will not move but a wave of non-elites will enter the fight. Once all 3 channelers are dead, Deathwail will drop down and take the Heart. He can fear, deathcoil, and shadowbolt if you stay at range. The Heart will drop off his corpse.
+Elysona was a student in [[archaeology]] at [[Falthrien Academy]] for a number of years, interested especially in the history of her people going back to the time of the Kaldorei Empire.
+Shortly after graduation, Elysona turned to the [[Reliquary]], but disagreed strongly with their views and moved to [[Winterspring]] as a solo archaeologist. Elysona would eventually enroll in the Blood Knights of [[Quel'thalas]].
-Some people report that it's possible to land on top of the building with a ranged character and attack the channelers. The wave of non-elites will not "glitch" themselves on top of the building to attack you. If you wait long enough, they'll eventually despawn. However, this could be considered an exploit by Blizzard and adventurers should do this at their own risk.
-Edit: This has been fixed by Blizzard, if you attempt to stay on the building, the non-elites will attack from range with bows.
+To combat her addiction to magic, Elysona marked her arms with demonic runes, feeding her energy. Now, however, the [[Sunwell]] is restored, and the runes are harming her greatly. Without any obvious cure, Elysona must temporarily calm the burning sensation of the demon energies by absorbing fel or arcane magic.
-== Description ==
-It has been known to us that the fel orcs, under Illidan's command, have guarded an Ata'mal crystal known as the Heart of Fury at the Ata'mal Terrace. They cloud its presence with dark magic, to keep it from the Sha'tar.
+On an assignment in [[Outland]] to defeat any remnants of the [[Illidari]], Elysona was exposed to the arcane energies of the Twisting Nether, and the pain from the runes became even harsher. Disobeying orders and leaving Outland behind, she now searches Azeroth for knowledge that can aid her. And she is willing to gain that knowledge from anyone, from the [[Scarlet Crusade]] to the [[Steamwheedle Cartel]] to the [[Alliance]].
-Fight your way to the Atam'al Terrace outside the Black Temple and turn your eyes to the sky. Shadowlord Deathwail will circle the terrace, beyond your reach. You will have to slay him and his warlocks before you can obtain the crystal.
+Elysona is still greatly interested in archaeology, and spends her free time looking for ancient elven artifacts.
-It won't be easy, <name>. I wish you luck.
-== Progress ==

-== Post completion cut scene==

+We are, now and forever, sin'dorei. Children of the Blood.
-Akama says: With this crystal's powers, my Deathsworn and I... we'd be unstoppable! We could destroy [[Illidan]]! We could... replace him as lords of [[Outland]]!
+===Entry 2===
+Hunger... I need magic...
+Years have passed since the [[Sunwell]] was destroyed. Our people have joined the [[Horde]] and followed the Prince to Outland. He can find a cure.
