Scryers The Scryers are a faction of blood elves led by . The group broke away from Prince , heir to the throne of Quel ' Thalas and ruler of the blood elven race , and offered to assist the naaru in rebuilding Shattrath City . They are at odds with the Aldor , and compete with them for power within Shattrath and for the naaru ' s favor . Nowadays , the Scryers are notable for having the largest library out there , housing the " greatest repository of lore in Outland " . Characters may join the Scryers by completing the quest , thereby becoming with the Scryers and with the Aldor . Lore . " From the article " Aldors and Scryers " , found at the World of Warcraft website : This time , the attack [ on Shattrath City ] came from the armies of Illidan Stormrage . A large regiment of blood elves had been sent by Illidan ’ s ally , Prince Kael ' thas Sunstrider , to lay waste to the city . As the regiment of blood elves crossed the bridge , the Aldor ’ s exarchs and vindicators lined up to defend the Terrace of Light . Then the unexpected happened : the blood elves laid down their weapons in front of the city ' s defenders . Their leader , a blood elf elder known as Voren ’ thal , stormed into the Terrace of Light and demanded to speak to the naaru A ' dal . As the naaru approached him , Voren ’ thal knelt and uttered the following words : “ I ’ ve seen you in a vision , naaru . My race ’ s only hope for survival lies with you . My followers and I are here to serve you . ” The defection of Voren ’ thal and his followers was the largest loss ever incurred by Kael ’ thas ’ forces . Nor were these just any blood elves . Many of the strongest and brightest amongst Kael ’ thas ’ scholars and magisters had been swayed by Voren ’ thal ' s influence . The naaru accepted the defectors , who became known as the Scryers . " Services . The Scryers offer a variety of services to those who swear allegiance to their cause , including an inn , a bank and various vendors . Their most notable services , however , are their Master and Grand Master Enchanter trainer s , the availability of whom allows aspiring enchanters to attain mastery over the Enchanting profession without entering Uldaman . Of course , enchanters need not ally themselves with the Scryers simply to train as masters : the Scryer Enchanting trainers teach nothing that is not available through other trainers located in Outland . Reputation . Reputation gains with the Scryers correspond with a 10 % greater loss of reputation with the Aldor , and often result in gains with the Sha ' tar . Blood elves who have not yet pledged allegiance to either the Aldor and Scryers will automatically begin as with the Scryers and with the Aldor . However , blood elves may choose to side with the Aldor once the opportunity presents itself , and are not banned from doing so simply because of their race . Until Honored .
