Blizzard have a big preview ready for the new and improved Eversong Woods, now including the Ghotlands in it as well! The zone will also be connected to the main Eastern Kingdoms continent and allow Skyriding directly into and across it. There are many more details to the zone, from three dungeons and a new event, so let’s take a look.
Immerse yourself in a revitalized Eversong Woods. With the Voidstorm looming overhead and renewed with the power of the Sunwell, Eversong Woods is familiar, but changed—filled with wonder and beauty, and a sense that something bigger is unfolding.
Graphic updates breathe new life into this iconic blood elf homeland. A combination of the original Eversong Woods and the Ghostlands, the zone has been slightly expanded and connected to the Eastern Kingdoms.
Players can take to the skies and Skyride through the zone, without loading screens, while experiencing the majesty of the glittering spires of blood elf architecture and golden foliage of the forests from above.
At a Glance
- Zone- Eversong Woods: A part of the kingdom of Quel’thalas, it is comprised of the newly combined zones of Eversong Woods and Ghostlands and has been expanded and reimagined with enhanced graphics. Silvermoon City stands as its shining capital.
- Blood Elves: Members of the Horde, this proud race once used the moniker of ‘high elves’ before adopting the name of the sin’dorei (children of the blood) in the wake of tragedy.
- Faction: Silvermoon Court
Eversong Woods: Home of the Blood Elves
The passage of time has healed many wounds in the land, including the Dead Scar, created by the Scourge invasion. Yet, places of death and darkness remain, out of sight and mind.
Your journey will begin here as the sin’dorei protect themselves not only from the Void, but also from other threats, both familiar and new.
New Activity: Silvermoon Court/Saltheril’s Soiree
Speak to Lorthemar Theron for the “Midnight: World Tour” quest, dispatching you to Saltheril’s Haven.
Amid Silvermoon’s intricate politics and quiet struggles for influence, our most distinguished military orders each have matters they wish addressed. Help them tend to their defenses.
Balance your reputation between four of Silvermoon’s military factions—Blood Knights, Farstriders, Magisters, and Sunreavers—via public events and weeklies.
Saltheril’s Soiree is a … complicated affair. High society. High drama. That said, they do their part to keep Eversong orderly and serene. Prove your worth to these factions, and you may find their gratitude and favor richly rewarded. Each track has its own set of cosmetic rewards.
Be sure to visit Renown Vendor, Caeris Fairdawn, and Decor Vendor, Sathren Azuredawn in Saltheril’s Haven, to spend your Voidlight Marl. Faction vendors are also standing nearby, where you can exchange your Brimming Arcana for additional rewards.
Dungeons
Murder Row: Eversong Woods: Silvermoon City
The darkened streets of Murder Row hide a secret fel-smuggling operation that has been preying on the fears of Silvermoon citizens ever since the Voidstorm appeared.
Bosses
- Kystia Manaheart: Although an accomplished Magister, Kystia Manaheart was far too devoted to fel magic to give it up entirely. Little wonder she’s become a staunch supporter and ally to underground fel smuggling operations in the Row.
- Zaen Bladesorrow: Clever, quick-witted, and commanding, Zaen Bladesorrow oversees the shipments of illegal fel artifacts. Those under his command follow his orders to the letter… or pay the price.
- Xathuux the Annihilator: Xathuux the Annihilator is one of Lithiel Cinderfury’s most powerful summons. Although he loathes serving the warlock, he follows her commands for the sheer visceral joy of destruction.
- Lithiel Cinderfury: Lithiel Cinderfury sees the Voidstorm above Silvermoon as both a threat and an opportunity. Her people are afraid, and she has a perfect solution… the power of fel. She claims her smuggling operation protects her people from the dangers above, but the profits she receives are a pleasing bonus.
Windrunner Spire: Eversong Woods
Once the Hallowed home of the Windrunner family, Windrunner Spire now mirrors the scarred relationship between Alleria, Sylvanas, and Vereesa. Animosity during a reunion at the home drove suffering and grief into a haunted manifestation that binds the spirits there, unable to find peace.
Bosses
- Emberdawn: Emberdawn settled in the gardens of Windrunner Spire after seeking a place to raise her young. Highly territorial, she guards her nest with a searing ferocity.
- Derelect Duo: The banshee Kalis and her loyal abomination Latch lead a group of fanatical followers of Sylvanas Windrunner. They’ve come to the Spire in search of relics with any resonant essence of the Dark Lady, willing to do anything to obtain them.
- Commander Kroluk: Commander Kroluk once fought in the Second War, a conflict that ended the life of Alleria Windrunner’s brother, Lirath. In her grief, Alleria slaughtered any Old Horde she could find. The vengeful spirits of those she defeated now haunt the Spire.
- The Restless Heart: Born from the grief and wrath of the Windrunner family, the vengeful spirit of a once-proud Ranger-General haunts the halls of its abandoned ancestral home. Only by facing a worthy foe can it be laid to rest and finally know peace.
Magister’s Terrace: Isle of Quel’danas
Magister’s Terrace is the heart of arcane study for the sin’dorei, including Magister Umbric, long ago. Within its halls lies the Cynosure of Twilight, the key to unlocking the way into the Voidstorm.
Bosses
- Arcanotron Custos: This highly advanced arcane construct has been charged with keeping the peace and ensuring that all Magisters adhere to rules and restrictions. Veering from said rules will not be tolerated.
- Seranel Sunlash: An accomplished Spellbreaker, Serenel Sunlash has earned the full trust of the Magisters. Charged with the protection of the Cynosure of Twilight. Seranel will fulfill those duties with his very life if necessary.
- Gemellus: An otherworldly spawn of Void origins, Gemellus seems to utilize the Void not only for its own protection but to propagate and foster the development of its species as well.
- Degentrius: A powerful creature of the Void, Degentrius has taken advantage of the opportunity inadvertently provided by Magister Umbric and launched an assault on the Terrace.
New adventures await you in World of Warcraft: Midnight. Unveil them as you explore Eversong Woods, creating new alliances and discovering answers to age-old mysteries. But watch your back, the journey ahead is teaming with danger as Xal’atath’s invasion of Azeroth begins, and the Voidstorm threatens to cover the world in darkness.
