Silvermoon City is the crown jewel of the blood elves and their capital city․ It is nestled in the northern reaches of the Eversong Woods in their ancestral homeland of Quel'Thalas․ The beauty of the spires and thoroughfares of Silvermoon stand in stark contrast to the Dead Scar‚ the tainted path that Arthas Menethil tore through the city in his quest for power․ Though nearly destroyed by Arthas' attack on the Sunwell‚ Silvermoon is once again a thriving city․ Most recently‚ the rebirth of the Sunwell has lifted spirits among the elves‚ and they have continued to heal Silvermoon's scars in the hopes of returning their beloved capital to its former glory‚ the western half of it still being in ruins since the Third War․
