Amirdrassil is the new World Tree currently growing within the Emerald Dream, and the location for the main raid for Patch 10.2. A spell in 10.2's data hints at something quite significant about this tree's future.
Warning: Potential spoilers ahead
Amirdrassil, the Dream's Hope
Infused with the souls of those Night Elves who died in Teldrassil, and created from a shared tear of the Winter Queen and her sister, Elune, Amirdrassil was planted within the Emerald Dream by Tyrande Whisperwind herself. The growing World Tree represents more than just a new home for the Night Elves, it represents their future.
One question that has been asked about Amirdrassil is whether or not it will receive blessings from the Dragon Aspects.
Nordrassil, the Night Elves' first major World Tree, was planted from a seed from a great tree from the Emerald Dream shortly after the War of the Ancients. It was blessed by Alexstrasza, Ysera, and Nozdormu - Neltharion had already betrayed his fellow Aspects by then, and Malygos, still reeling from the loss of almost his entire flight, had isolated himself. The blessings on Nordrassil fell away after it was nearly destroyed during the Third War, and even though the tree has healed somewhat since then, it's never been blessed by the Aspects again.
Teldrassil, which was created from Nordrassil, was blessed by Alexstrasza and Ysera, but not by Nozdormu, whose blessing gave the Night Elves their immortality.
Now, a new spell on the 10.2 PTR suggests blessings involving the Dragon Aspects and World Tree will play a significant role in Amirdrassil's future - but in a surprising twist, it does not seem that the Aspects are blessing the tree, but rather the other way around!
The Great Dragons
The relevant spell is
Великие драконы
, which has flavor text that reads:
Alexstrasza, Kalecgos, Vyranoth, Ebyssian, Nozdormu, and Merithra arrive to receive the blessing of Amirdrassil.
First of all, Vyranoth's inclusion in the list of Dragon Aspects' names suggests she may yet become a Dragon Aspect herself - perhaps to represent a Dragonflight of Primalist Proto-Dragons who don't hate the other Dragon Aspects but who want to exist alongside the other Dragonflights as they are - unchanged by Titan influence.
Second, the Aspects are being blessed by the tree, rather than the other way around. There has been a lot to suggest that Amirdrassil will be uniquely powerful, even more than Nordrassil or Teldrassil ever was. The seed it grows from was already a powerful artifact in its own right - the infusion of Night Elf souls can only make it more so.
Perhaps this will be how the Dragon Aspects regain their Aspect powers, and not through another Titan blessing. It would give them a certain amount of agency - no longer having to rely on the Titans - which would explain why Vyranoth might be comfortable with it. A spell like this could also prove to play an important role in the raid - perhaps this is how we will ultimately defeat Fyrakk.
We're looking forward to learning more.
