Isanion's second victim.
Nessa "Chora" Mae was a beautiful, naive young elf who was for some time the mistress to a Silvermoon dignitry. When he decided to abandon their relationship, Chora had nowhere to go but The House of Scented Delicacies where she worked to entertain it's rich clientele as a courtesan.
Isanion Wingstalker lured Chora out of the city and strangled her. He cut out her heart to present to Esme Underwood under the pretence that it was, in fact, the heart of Renata Leafrunner, thus falsely winning the bounty on her life and also protecting Auren's real identity from being discovered. The crime was witnessed by one of Esme's Underbosses, Corporal Coffey, who then removed the body and buried it in the Ghostlands near Windrunner Spire. Coffey and Esme, suspicious that Isanion may have assassinated the wrong woman, decided to perform a channelling ritual on the heart with the help of another blood elf, Nozari. This involved Esme inviting the dead girl's spirit into her body so that Coffey and Nozari could speak to her. The ritual quickly spiralled out of control as Esme began to relive the girl's murder. Nozari managed to stop the ritual just as Esme's chest was magically scythed open. If the witch had not been Forsaken, it would have killed her.
