The (Mildly Confusing) Story of Traitor's Rest: Love, Betrayal, and a Two-Headed... Dragon?
wowhead.comThe story of Traitor's Rest comes to a close this week. We look back over what we've learned, the surprises we've uncovered, and the questions we're still left with.
The Battle of Traitor's Rest
The Azerothian Archives is a new organization that seems to be something of a stand-in for Archeology.

According to Eadweard, the real surprise is evidence that the blue dragonflight was involved. Presumably, he's asked them for more information and was refused an answer, because Eadweard says the Blue Dragons are «staying mum», but he's determined to solve the mystery anyway, «for Sindragosa».
