In 10.2.7, a new questline takes us on a trip down Dragonflight's memory lane, as Scalecommander Emberthal considers finally deciding on her visage form.
Emberthal's Visage Day
The questline begins with Chromie, who seems eager at the thought that Scalecommander Emberthal might finally be preparing to choose a visage. Dragons often celebrate this decision with a special day, and we can ask Chromie about her visage day.
I remember it like it was yesterday!
I was so nervous. I had no idea what kind of visage form I was going to choose. I talked to dragons from all over Azeroth! That was helpful. but none of them spoke true to me.
I realized that it was about how you see yourself. I don't see myself as a great warrior, or hero. or conqueror.
I see myself as someone who wants to help build a brighter future for all of Azeroth!
This just suits me.
We find Emberthal with Scalecommanders Cindrethresh and Viridia, who are expressing their surprise that she hasn't picked a visage yet.
Scalecommander Viridia says: Really? You haven't picked a visage form yet? Do you still not feel ready?
Scalecommander Emberthal says: This is me. It has always been me. Why do I need another?
Scalecommander Cindrethresh says: I think you may be overthinking this, Emberthal,
She tells us that the problem is she's never fully understood the concept of visage forms to begin with, and asks us to speak with various visitors to Valdrakken about their identities, and what it means to them.
I have heard that visage is supposed to be ones own expression of self.
How does one discover what that is?
People of Valdrakken
We interview a wide range of people, each of whom has something different to say about their true identities. We speak to dracthyr, a death knight, a demon hunter, worgen, a void elf, a mother, and an orc scholar-warrior. Some have chosen their identities, while others have come to accept who they are even though they never chose it. Some find their identities in the people around them, while others find themselves in the things they love. Everyone we speaks to has a unique point of view:
Claretta: Dracthyr-Presenting Dracthyr
I know my companion does not agree, but I find my visage form inconvenient.
Scales, teeth, wings, and tail. I feel so exposed without them. I am a dracthyr.
When I am in visage, I cannot reach anything!
My truest self is who I am. Who I always present.
There are advantages to a visage, but none could capture my elegance or ferocity.
Taellyn: Visage-Presenting Dracthyr
How did I find myself? Truly. my visage feels like my realest self. Odd isn't it?
When I first claimed my visage form, I knew immediately.
I'm just able to be me. Not a solider, not a dracthyr. Just Taellyn.
