Ravencrest Monument

^{[63, 79]}

is both an area and a huge statue in Azshara, raised in honor of Lord Kur'talos Ravencrest. He led the resistance after the fall of Zin-Azshari, Suramar, and countless other cities against the Burning Legion, and fought beside the young Tyrande and the brothers Illidan and Malfurion Stormrage.

Sadly, the statue now lies in ruins; only the broken-off legs still stand and various parts are visible on the ground around them. Presumably, the rest has sunk beneath the waves of the Great Sea. The ruins are inhabited by the hostile Spitelash tribe of naga.

Inhabitants

•     Spitelash Stormfury

•     Spitelash Priestess
•     Lady Vesthra
•     Lady Silisthra
•     General Fangferror (Rare mob)

Trivia

• The statue of Ravencrest is similar to that of one mentioned in the poem "Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley. The poem is very similar to the original history of the night elves.
• The statue might also be a reference to the Colossus of Rhodes which supposedly snapped at the knees when damaged by an earthquake.
• It might in fact be a tributary memorial made in honor of Kur'talos Ravencrest.

Patch changes

• Patch 4.0.3a (2010-11-23): Named mobs added to area.
