The Tale of Hraxian - More Conversations with Veritistrasz and Voraxian in 10.1
The Red Dragon Veritistrasz has come a long way since we first met and spoke with him in the Waking Shores. Returning to his home in the Dragon Isles had brought up memories of Distyia — a Black Dragon friend he was once very close with before losing her to Neltharion's corruption. Veritistrasz was full of regret, but we spent time with him, helping him to work through his memories, until we eventually introduced him to Voraxian, a Black Dragon from Outland who is fascinated with his flight's history. When we left Veritistrasz and Voraxian in 10.0.7, Veritistrasz had promised to tell us the story of Hraxian one day, a Black Dragon who died during the final battle with the Djaradin elders. He's finally made good on this promise in 10.1!

A recent Djaradin attack on the Dragonscale Expedition group has left one dead and several badly injured, poisoned by the Djaradin blades. While Veritistrasz helps with an antidote, we accompany Voraxian and one of the stranger members of the expedition — Rupert, a «Gentleman Elemental» — as they investigate a local cavern. The cavern turns out to be a buried vault containing Black Dragonflight artifacts guarded by Titan Watchers — and we collect an Elementally Charged Orb and Displayed Armor Piece, as well as an extensive Research Journal.

The final entry reads:> The Gaze of Neltharion outpost is reporting «unexpected outcomes» after disposing of experimental waste. It is a characteristic understatement and intriguing. Neltharion has ordered that we close this vault and transfer back to Read more on wowhead.com
