The Nightmare Dragons

Known for their ferocity, this Green Dragon quartet offer max level players new items and extraordinary challenges. All four of these dragons were once guardians of portals to Emerald Dream, but have now succumbed to the Emerald Nightmare and now set out to bring their nightmarish terror to Azeroth's denizens.

Emeriss, Lethon, Ysondre, and Taerar will awaken on April 16th at 18:00 EDT.

Something is amiss in the Emerald Dream. Immense dragons with the shimmering emerald scales of the Green Dragonflight have been sighted guarding the portals at the Great Trees. These once-noble creatures crawl with a new, strange menace, not the peace for which Ysera is known. Bring many allies should you dare to confront them; their powers are formidable and they will not hesitate to crush any who draw near.
