They can get their food elsewhere, they won’t wither away anymore. Being restored by the arcan’dor simply means they no longer need to depend on the Nightwell for sustenance. But I don’t recall any of the shal’dorei claiming that they had immortality due to the Nightwell. Or they simply extended their own lives through magic - the shal’dorei are highly skilled in the arcane arts. It’s possible that the Nightwell extended the life span of the shal’dorei - after all, it was altered by a Titan Artifact. The Sunwell is the outlet - it’s something the Blood Elves plug into to fuel their spells. It’s like the difference between a sandwich and an outlet - the Nightwell is the sandwich. It was food, not a font of magic to draw from like the Sunwell. And there’s no indication that the Nightwell granted them immortality - they used it for sustenance. They were already encased in a bubble when Nozdormu blessed Nordrassil. As you said, they weren’t part of the group that was affected by the World Tree. I don’t know if the shal’dorei were ever “immortal” so much as really, really long-lived. Now, fully restored thanks to the arcan’dor, the question is do they still have that gift? Did they ever lose it to begin with, hence why the withered survived even without sustenance? And in this time, obviously, they had immortality. And then they turned to the Nightwell for everything. However, the shal’dorei were behind their shield at that point, isolated and unaffected by such details. The other three branches of elves lost their immortality when the Well of Eternity was destroyed and then when Nordrassil burned. Lore Q4tQ: Are the shal’dorei still immortal? The only thing we really need to take from that information at the moment is that Alleria and Turalyon both have been fighting the Legion for a very, very long time. So there aren’t any “solid” answers surrounding that one - but there doesn’t really need to be. It’s entirely possible she had something to do with it. But he’s also been allied with the Army of the Light and working side-by-side with a prime naaru. Turalyon’s lived far, far longer than any Human reasonably should live. We don’t really have a way of tracking just how it’s messed up, or why. She says the Mage was right, and that “time has little meaning in this place.”Įssentially…time is messed up, in the Twisting Nether. Later on in the quest, Vereesa speculates just how long her sister was imprisoned on Niskara, the Legion world you travel to. The Mage that summons a portal for you and Vereesa makes note that time passes “differently” in the Twisting Nether. If you happen to have a Hunter and do the Marksmanship Artifact chain, you’ll get a couple clues on that front. Q4tQ: What’s the deal with Time out in the Twisting Nether? How have Alleria and Turalyon been crusading for all those years?
