Not long after the release of version 9.0 of World of Warcraft, Xia Yike, a well-known Warcraft singer, released a fan derivative song "Lighting Dreamland", which attracted great attention from many fans. In the new version of Shadow Realm, players can choose to join a covenant and embark on an adventure in the Shadow Realm as a member of the covenant. The background of this fan song "Dream of Light" is the blazing blue fairyland of Faye.
Many players were attracted by the ethereal BGM and dreamlike scenery of Ardenweald and joined the Night Fae Covenant, and then followed "Light Dreamland" to enter this illusory fairy tale world. As you gradually get to know Ardenweald, you will find that what is more attractive than the music and scenery is the plot of Ardenweald and the mission to resurrect the dream queen "Ysera".
Immerse yourself in Ardenweald and learn about Ysera’s past and present life
Ysera was once one of the Azeroth Aspect Dragons and the guardian of the Emerald Dream She has the power to control nature. She leads the green dragons and druids to pay attention to every detail of Azeroth through the Emerald Dream. When the War of the Ancients broke out, Ysera took on the responsibility of repairing the world in the dream, leading the druids to heal the planet's wounds and regulate the world's natural balance and biological evolution.
But the dream will not be stable forever. The opposite of beauty in the dream is the nightmare. Under the catalyst of the Burning Legion and the Nightmare King, the dream is gradually corrupted by the nightmare, and the Emerald Dream gradually becomes... It has become a suffocating nightmare of terror, and Azeroth is in a huge crisis. For this reason, Ysera entered the dreamland and engaged in a protracted tug-of-war with the nightmare, becoming a sleeper.
Until the advent of the Cataclysm, Ysera stepped out of the dream and awakened back. However, in the war with Deathwing, her abilities were exhausted, and the Age of Dragons came to a complete end. Later, when the Nightmare King Xavius ??once again corrupted the Emerald Dream, the night elf Malfurion tried to save the world, but Ysera stepped into Xavius' trap. The Tears of Elune corrupted Ysera. The fallen Ysera was finally defeated by Tyrande, thus ending Ysera, Queen of Dreams.
Ysera, the Queen of Dreams, is about to return to Azeroth
This reminds us of Arthas, who suffered the same fate, and was willing to endure Frostmourne for the sake of his people and country. Curse, put on the Helm of Dominance and become the Lich King. In the end, he was defeated by the coalition forces, ending this lamentable life. As the guardian of the Emerald Dream, Ysera had the power to control nature during her lifetime, and after her death, she would enter the vibrant Arden Fairyland. In this forest, countless dream trees are providing anima to the souls of nature waiting for rebirth.
The mysterious Night Fa protects this forest. As the final task of the Fa Night plot, it is to provide enough anima for Ysera's rebirth. There is a scene in the quest line where everyone sends Ysera's spiritual seeds to each other, which makes people know that her sacrifice is worth it and some redemption is indispensable. Finally, when the Winter Queen resurrected Ysera, countless Sylvan and goblins came out of the forest, accompanied by the whispers of the Nightsong Forest, to welcome the return of the Dream Guardian.
I don’t know if all Faye players have been tortured by such a plot. When the editor completed the last plot and Ysera was successfully resurrected, tears filled his eyes at that moment.
