Cinematic

Before embarking on the questline, players are treated to a thrilling cinematic that sets the stage for the upcoming events. The cinematic showcases a rogue group of Sundered Flame, creating an atmosphere of suspense and intrigue that leaves players eager to dive deeper into the story.


Patch 10.1.7 Dracthyr and Emberthal Questline

The questline begins when players approach Scalecommander Emberthal in Valdrakken. They are greeted with an intense dialogue between Emberthal and Amythora:

  • Dialogue:

Scalecommander Emberthal: Amythora! Have you and Marithos made contact with the holdout dracthyr settlements? Any news of Dezran?

Amythora: Scalecommander! The Sundered Flame! They're back!

Scalecommander Emberthal: The Sundered Flame? How?

Amythora: I do not know. We were scouting the camp at Lonely Falls and were ambushed. They took Marithos!

After this immersive dialogue, players are tasked with finding Marithos in the Azure Span through the quest "A Single Wing". Once Marithos is found, the next quest, "Getting to Ground", is picked up to ensure Marithos' safety. These initial quests serve as an introduction to the questline and lay the foundation for the challenges to come.

  • Quests:

  1. A Single Wing
  2. Getting to Ground

Following these quests, players can continue their journey by taking on three follow-up quests:

  • Follow-up Quests:

  1. Seeing Reason: Players attempt to confront Quartermaster Doros to convince him to become Ebon Scales again.
  2. The Best Intentions: The goal is to free Marithos from his shackles.
  3. Dracthyr Down: Players are tasked with collecting Wingfoil herbs to heal Marithos.

Players will need to find the key and herbs for these quests. However, they are met with an unfortunate turn of events when they are forced to defend themselves and ultimately kill Quartermaster Doros, who refuses to see reason and fights until the bitter end.

Once players complete all of these quests, they are rewarded with the quest "Urgent Exfiltration". This quest entails defending Amythora and Marithos, which ultimately leads to an impactful cinematic.

Returning to Valdrakken

After completing "Urgent Exfiltration", players return to Valdrakken and engage in a meaningful conversation:

  • Conversation:

Windlord! It is good to have you back. After we left you in the titan vault...

Winglord Dezran: I am proud to see how you have grown since I last saw you both. But now, go. Get some rest. Emberthal and I must talk.

Scalecommander Emberthal: You were a good leader, Dezran. Amythora and Marithos idolize you. When you left, it took some coaxing for them to follow me.

Winglord Dezran: I don't deserve their loyalty. I believed Sarkareth's rhetoric. I didn't recognize what he stood for.

Scalecommander Emberthal: A wise dragon once showed me that my future--and his--was not in the past. It was in my people.

Scalecommander Emberthal: We have a chance now to finally unite the dracthyr. Will you help me?

Winglord Dezran: Help you? It sounds like you're more likely to help me.

The conversation between Winglord Dezran and Scalecommander Emberthal hints at a deeper connection between the characters and the potential for a united dracthyr. Players are left with questions about the fate of Emberthal, Dezran, and the Sundered Flame. The questline promises to offer thrilling challenges and a compelling storyline that will keep players engaged from start to finish.

Conclusion

With Patch 10.1.7, players have access to an exhilarating new questline that delves into the world of Emberthal and the Sundered Flame. The cinematic and quests offer an immersive and engaging experience, allowing players to unravel the story surrounding Scalecommander Emberthal, Winglord Dezran, and the fate of the dracthyr settlements.
