Winter's Sigil

Winter's Sigil concludes the seventh chapter of the Chains of Domination campaign, "The Power of Night", though there is a breadcrumb back to Korthia next. The penultimate chapter begins back at Keeper's Respite in Korthia at Renown (Shadowlands) 56, with Thenios offering A Paladin's Soul.

Bring the Sisters' Tear to Ysera at the Heart of the Forest.

• Take the Sisters' Tear
• Speak with Ysera

My sister... After all this time... She did not abandon me...

<The barest hint of a smile graces the Winter Queen's face before it is gone. She turns her attention to you with the weight of eons.>

Attend me,. Take my sister's tear, and come to the Heart of the Forest.

You will receive:

• 2x Starblossom Nectar
• Emblem of Renown

Well done.

<Ysera sighs, relieved.>

Such peace has returned to Ardenweald and to those who dwell within. My dear friend has been saved. I do not know what comes next, but I have hope.

This could not have been done without your help,. Thank you.

As the Winter Queen teleports away, the Sisters' Tear appears in her place. Pick it up, then return to the Heart of the Forest and speak with Ysera:

A cutscene plays.

On the other side, speak with Ysera again to turn in.

After completing this quest, Night Fae Covenant players can head into the Heart proper and check in with Astarii Starseeker:

In addition, Tyrande has new gossip:

• When I first became the Night Warrior, it was with full knowledge that I might very well sacrifice my life to attain justice for the kaldorei. Such is often the fate of those who channel Elune's unmitigated fury.
• The power of the goddess still flows through me, but no longer does it threaten to tear me asunder. I cannot say how I will wield it in the future... only that I must do so for the good of my people.

Ysera has new gossip:

• I am uncertain, . Once, I was bound only to the Dream. Now I am also tethered to this realm by powers I do not fully comprehend.
• The Winter Queen gave of her own essence to save me, and I will repay her kindness as best I can. Yet beyond that, I can only wonder when I might return to family in Azeroth... if indeed such a reunion can ever come to pass.
• (Ysera smiles at you.)
• But thanks to you, I have hope. Not only have you helped to restore Ardenweald, but you saved my beloved Tyrande from a rage that nearly consumed her.
• The future may be uncertain, and the Jailer threatens all we hold dear. But whatever comes, I know you will face it with courage.

As does Thiernax:

• Strangely, it felt good. I remembered the peace I had always felt in her presence, the soothing calm she gave me as we faced the Dark God. I remember standing by the other champions as we fought that last desperate battle. How Elune's strength allowed me to heal my allies and then lay waste to the dark minions. How the stars above heeded my call, and the beauty of her power as it burned away the evil which had killed so many of my people. The grim satisfaction as I used her light to cleanse my world.
• But more... I remembered her love for me and the bittersweet sorrow she felt when I asked for her dark powers.
• I think she knew that I would end up here and that I would heal.
• Thank you, . This has brought me closure I needed.
