The Story of Alystros
After chasing a snobold to chilltusk a Magnataur. She found a strange battle horn on him. Something a Magnataur would not normally have. She decided to take it to Lady Alexstrasza, and ask her opinion on the matter. Apon arrival she was pulled aside by the Ambassador to the Green Dragonflight Lord Itharius.
While talking with Lord Itharius she was informed that more weapons were needed to combat the scourge. He wanted her to go to the Emerald Dragonshrine in order to obtain seeds from lashers there. She was shocked to see Ysera the dreamer when she arrived.
While looking for the lasher seeds she was approached by A Garden Keeper named Nishera.
She told Kurenia of how she had tried to inform Ysera. That they needed her help to fight the scourge who were raising frostwyrm on the other side of Dragonblight. Ysera misunderstood this message and told the avian defenders of the shrine to attack anyone who is not of her flight. She then told Kurenia that she needed her help to slay some of these defenders. Kurenia did as see was asked and started to slay any of the Skytalon that got in range of her bow.
When she returned to Nishera to inform that she had thinned their numbers. Nishera informs her that the dragonshrine was still not balanced and that the leader of the Skytalon was angered by their actions. She told Kurenia to go slay this Skytalon and bring back proof of his demise. Infuriated at this Kurenia shouted at Nishera claiming that this did not need to be done. That there must be another way.
So she sat; waiting and hoping that she herself could come up with some way to avoid this.
She finally realized what she must do. Remembering what her master had taught her so long ago, and she told her companion Zouge to go wait for her at wyrmrest temple.
He was reluctant to obey, but in the end did and ran off.
She then went to go hide in a bush by his roost. Wondering how she was going to take on such a powerful beast. How she was going to get her feelings across to him.
She decide that it would be a leap of faith, and that hopefully somehow he would get the message. She revealed herself and called out to him.
He instantly turned to attack and started flying towards her.
Panicked she ran and placed her back against a tree and started trying to get her feelings to be known to him.
Finally her feelings became known to Alystros and he stopped his assault just moments before she thought she would die from his attacks. She sat under that tree with Alystros recovering for hours. Wondering what she was going to tell Nishera when she returned with Alystros by her side when she was ordered to kill him.
She went to Nishera and begged for Alystros life. Saying that if she would allow him to live they would leave the dragonshrine together and never return.
Nishera said that his would be fine, and that with him gone the Dragonshirne would become balanced again.
Kurenia quickly searched for the lasher seed she was sent there for, and then left with Alystros in tow to head back to the Wyrmrest Temple.
