Didn't these tablets used to be much closer to each other? I haven't done the Darkshore quests in some time, but I have done them in years past with several night elf characters. I swore they were both in the northern section of Ameth'Aran. (i see a definite dividing line in the middle of the area that goes east to west... sorry if that makes no sense)

Don't expect to learn any lore unless you can read elvish.

Translations for those of you that can't read Darnassian:

The Lay of Ameth'Aran:
Long had the children of the stars dwelled upon the banks of the shimmering waters of the Eternal Well. To all was known that Elune, light of the eternal twilight, aspect and goddess of the moon, dwelt withing its waters at such time that she rested from her works. Upon the shores of the Well did the children of the stars, favoured of Elune, build their homes, even as their gaze was trained ever skyward, into the moonlit night.

Though there were many towns and places of habitation constructed upon the lakeshore, Ameth'Aran and Bashal'Aran were the foremost, having the touch of Azshara, the Kaldorei's beloved queen, in their creation. Her favored servitors, those of the highborne, she brought to the twin towns to reside, and to govern them she placed Athrikus Narassin, though it would be that he would spend most of his days in his Tower of Althalaxx, some ways removed of the towns.

His second, a mage known of his prowess in the arcane arts as much as with his physical abilities, was Asterion, who lived among the people of Bashal'Aran, and went many times to Ameth'Aran, to see to the needs and wants of its people.

And so it was, upon the shores of the Well of Eternity, the twin towns grew and prospered, while the world beneath the stars fell slowly to madness.

The Fall of Ameth'Aran:
The earth trembled as the ancient trees in the enchanted forest were uprooted and toppled. The groves and glades tended by the sons and daughters of Cenarius and the stone towers of the children of the stars were brought to the rolling ground. There was our queen, radiant even in the desperation, in the chaos that was the battles. The enchanted changed colors with the discharge of magic, with the explosions that threathened to tear the world asunder.

Brother fought brother. Chosen fought blessed. It was not all the highborne that fought. Some stood, transfixed, as the madness took them. Mighty cities and humble towns alike were felled around them.

In Ameth'Aran, all was in ruins, its people clinging to the ground as though that might spare them from the destruction. It was then that Athrikus Narassin, favored of Azshara appeared to guide them to safety.

With a spell he could protect them, he would say. While around them, brother and sister, father and mother perished, they would have life eternal. And naught to fear from the sundering that was to come...

Blizzard have gone to so much trouble over the years to craft a very consistent "lore" and this quest is very much a part of that lore. Sadly, these minor quest chains do little to imbue a real understanding of the lore of Warcraft, especially relevant being the history of the Night Elves, in this case.

We just rush through now and push on to maximum level. How many of us actually bother with really trying to grasp the world of Azeroth?

WoW has become so huge that we should really be pushing for Blizzard to rework a lot of these old quests, perhaps providing some direction for players who wish to level in a lore centric manner.

The Well of Eternity (which one lol), Azshara, those closest to her, Arcane magic, Night Elves, Trolls, etc are so important to an understanding of WoW.

What do Trolls and Night Elves have in common? Most of us wouldn't have a clue.

Obsolete quest? For lovers of WoW lore: disgusting.

Edit: And new players will wonder what this ruins of Bashal'Aran thing is beneath the vortex south of Lor'Danel. Darkshore was plenty big enough for a Cataclysm with having to remove all the good stuff, lol.

Описание

К востоку отсюда находятся руины Амет'Арана. Сейчас их населяют неупокоенные духи высокорожденных, некогда живших в его стенах, но когда-то Амет'Аран был местом, где слуги Азшары свободно практиковались в своей могучей магии.

Меня послали исследовать эти руины, и я наткнулась на две большие таблички, на которых была неразборчиво начертана история Амет'Арана и его падения. Пока я пыталась прочесть руны, на меня напали призраки, и я сбежала.

Пожалуйста, если можете, отправляйтесь в руины и расшифруйте таблички вместо меня.
