Thalyssra's Estate

Meet with Lady Liadrin at the Estate of the First Arcanist in Suramar.

Would you like to hear how the nightborne came to join the Horde?

We earned their trust when we aided them in liberating Suramar from the tyranny of Grand Magistrix Elisande and the Burning Legion.

Lor'themar Theron later asked them to join him in Quel'Thalas. Lady Liadrin made the journey to extend the invitation to First Arcanist Thalyssra...

The city of Suramar is beautiful to behold. I hope Silvermoon City is not a disappointment to them.

• The conversation between Thalyssra and Liadrin was controversial among some players. It's been argued that Liadrin glorifies and exaggerates the high elves' role in world affairs while downplaying or dismissing the night elves' own when, arguably, the night elves were more active on the world stage than the largely insulated high elves. Thalyssra's dismissal of the Alliance, seemingly predicated on Tyrande's less-than-friendly attitude during the Suramar campaign, was also criticized as somewhat petty of the otherwise fair-minded Thalyssra.
• Liadrin makes a number of questionable claims:
• say
• Tyrande told Kael'thas Sunstrider that she grieves for his people murdered by the Scourge. She also encouraged him to lead those that survived to a brighter future.
• However, Liadrin could have come to this conclusion as a result of the Sentinel spies that were sent to spy on her people and sabotage them, or the enduring disdain the night elves have for the descendants of their Highborne kin.
• say
• Tyrande and the Sentinels kept a 10,000 year-long vigil over their lands. And raised a mist to hide Kalimdor from outsiders. The night elves fought in the War of the Satyr and War of the Shifting Sands during this time.
• However, the Long Vigil did not extend to the Eastern Kingdoms; and while Tyrande and her people were partially aware of what transpired beyond the Great Sea, the kaldorei only rarely intervened and made efforts to mask their presence during such excursions. Given this secretive policy, it's unlikely the greater body of high elves was privy to these exceptions, such as Emmarel Shadewarden and Shandris Feathermoon's battles alongside Talanas Windrunner and Ranger Captain Areiel.
• say
• It is unknown what world-saving event she is referring to. Quel'Thalas had been highly isolationist and did not show interest in threats until they came to its doorstep, such as during the Second War.

Regent Lord Theron invited the nightborne to join him in Silvermoon City.

• Description

First, we must inform them of the invitation. I prefer to do such things in person.

Please, come with me to Suramar and meet with Lady Thalyssra.
