Falconwing Square
Falconwing Square, and the North and West Sanctums
I crossed a footbridge and followed the former Dawning Lane
south, picking up a breadcrumb quest sequence on the way. I
noticed fearsome mobs on either side as you walk along, but
heeded the questgiver's advice to proceed straight to Falconwing
Square. The Square itself, complete with the fountain and plenty
of decor, seemed to express the blood elves' casual regard of
the mischievous creatures inhabiting the ruins in front of the
square.
Falconwing Square offers players the first chance to "bind"
their hearthstone to an Inn, as well as the most complete set of
class and secondary tradeskill trainers anywhere in Eversong
Forest outside of Silvermoon City. Though my time doing
Falconwing Square quests in the Ruins of Silvermoon was rather
brief, the entrance to Silvermoon City is still a bit of a hike,
so I found it best to return here to pick up my level 8 quests.
Let Blood Elves decorate your next war-torn area. (Falconwing
Square)
The Ruins of Silvermoon, erm... it's more ruinous inside.
Even the mobs, like this Arcane Patroller, are stylin'.
The usually vapid message uttered by mobs as you begin a fight
proved a little unsettling when I ventured up to an Arcane
Guardian in the ruins. "Protect the innocent!" was this one-time
blood elf protector's cry. Maybe I read too much into it, but it
seemed the underscore the idea that the blood elves'
preoccupation went far beyond the realm of curiosity, into
something very close to evil.
After polishing off the two odd quests in Falconwing Square and
selling off my vendor junk, a breadcrumb quest sent me southward
toward the remaining operational seats of the blood elves'
magical power: the north and west sanctums. These two points of
interest form a quest loop with Falconwing Square. While the
North Sanctum is functioning normally, the West Sanctum is
behaving erratically, spewing out monsters born of the latent
mana. Since the authorities suspected Alliance sabotage, I was
sent off to investigate. Without giving away too much, it proved
an interesting bit of questing that provided a little bit of
insight on the blood elves' brand of justice.
With all quests in the area complete, the next breadcrumb quest
sent me southward toward Fairbreeze Village
