Bloodmyst Isle storyline

Bloodmyst Isle is a level 11-20 Alliance zone just north of Azuremyst Isle and is the second place draenei players visit on their questing journeys. Major conflicts on the island include battles against the irradiated wildlife, the local satyrs and the blood elves known as Sunhawks. Most of the questing is done from Blood Watch in the center of the island, though there are a couple of other questing hubs.

The progress of the storyline is tracked in the achievement Bloodmyst Isle Quests.

The first place Draenei players arrive is Kessel's Crossing, right on the border between Azuremyst Isle and Bloodmyst Isle. There, Kessel has numerous quests for them revolving around defending the crossing from the threats of the Blood Elves and the Naga. Other quests in the area involve collecting fruit from the island and balancing the local ecosystem after the Exodar's crash unbalanced it.

With Saving Princess Stillpine and Report to Exarch Admetius, players move on to Blood Watch.

In Blood Watch, players have many quest lines dedicated to the defense of Bloodmyst Isle against the myriad threats being faced by the newly-arrived Draenei. In order to combat these threats, there are Vindicators who offer specific quest chains dedicated to countering each threat. The quest chains intertwine with each other to lead to the ultimate goal of the safety of the island.

The main Vindicator giving quests to defeat the Sunhawks is Vindicator Boros. Upon arriving at Blood Watch from the quest Report to Exarch Admetius, players are sent to Boros who immediately sends them into the field to terminate Sunhawks and collect crystals.

After some time, players can then help Vindicator Boros as he searches for information on how the Sunhawks are fighting so valiantly against the Draenei. They discover the existence of Sun Gates - portals to Outland that the Sunhawks are using to summon reinforcements. This information is taken to Prophet Velen in Audience with the Prophet. He proposes that the Sun Gates can be located by the presence of Void anomalies. Using these Void Anomalies, players locate the Sun Gates and then destroy them in The Sun Gate.
