And yet, the Night Elf Magisters, who acted as envoys, and who went to Darnassus - came from Dire Maul/Eldre'Thalas. They aren't living out any penance at all, they simply just sought refuge; "The Shen'dralar were an obscure and secretive faction of Highborne who used to dwell in The Athenaeum within Dire Maul, before they returned to the elven society and now can be seen in Darnassus, training night elven mages. They are a remnant of the quel'dorei who once populated Dire Maul, or Eldre'Thalas, as it was known in antiquity." -
