Alah'Thalas

Alah'Thalas (meaning Land of Light in Thalassian) is a high elven city situated on a peninsula near Quel'Thalas. It is the largest of the three major concentrations of high elves in Lordaeron and is one of the very last high elven settlements.

History
Roughly a century before the Third War, high elves of Quel'Thalas founded an outpost and empowered it by an arcane crystal infused with the energies of the Sunwell itself. However, some time later it was abandoned and remained uninhabited until recent time.

World of Warcraft
The outpost was rediscovered after the Third War by the Silvermoon Remnants with information from Dalaran's archives. It was settled by Thalassian refugees and was called Alah'Thalas - the Land of Light in their language. Now elves of Alah'Thalas are looking for the help of volunteers from the Alliance in their mission to maintain the city and protect the remnants of their once great race.

Mysteries of Azeroth
Two years after being discovered, the former outpost now stands as an imposing city fueled by the arcane magic that characterizes the High Elves, with the Regency Council as the new government after deposing Vereesa Windrunner as its spokesperson. and in the absence of a known living member of House Sunstrider.

Architecture
Unlike Farstrider Lodges across Azeroth that have a kaldorei-like wooden architecture, Alah'Thalas is the only place outside Quel'Thalas that was built with traditional quel'dorei architecture. City structures use arcane magic to operate - with a central crystal as the main power source and smaller crystals to effectively channel the arcane energy from the nexus to the buildings' ley points.
