Vereesa Windrunner

Lady **Vereesa Windrunner** is the former Speaker of the Silvermoon Remnant and a current member of the Regency Council of Alah'Thalas.

Previously the Speaker of the Silvermoon Remnant, Vereesa was a key individual in gaining the re-acceptance of the High Elves into the Alliance, having interceded with the Kaldorei for a Moonwell to be built in Alah'Thalas to aid the Quel'dorei with their addiction to magic. However, following the expansion of Alah'Thalas and the resettlement of the Thalassian Highlands, Vereesa was deposed by the surviving Quel'dorei nobility, though she was included in the current Regency Council alongside Lor'themar Theron, Astalor Sunsworn and Grand Magister Rommath.

## Background

Following the Fall of Silvermoon and the assassination of most the population of High Elves, Vereesa was tasked with gathering most of the remaining High Elves and transporting them south in caravans.

After finding the outpost called Alah'Thalas, she took it upon herself to look after the surviving elves and first, join them to the Alliance again to have her protection and help.

As the outpost progressed and became a city, the surviving nobles decided to depose Vereesa and form the regency council, of which she is now a part, bearing the surname of her family, the Windrunners, behind her. A family of Forest Generals, whose sister in life was Sylvanas Windrunner, the last Ranger General of Silvermoon.

### Gossip

In our people's most trying times, it was my unwavering commitment that brought us together to forge this sanctuary of hope. Through earnest efforts, I mended the bonds between our kin and the Alliance, restoring the trust that had faltered. I never sought regal titles or aspirations of grandeur, merely recognizing the pressing need for steadfast leadership.

Yet, in the halls of our own kin, where nobility should be defined by honor and foresight, a blindness persists. The noble families, entangled in the webs of influence and wealth, fail to perceive the true nature of our collective journey. Unjustly stripped of the title of Speaker, a position embraced not for personal gain but for the welfare of our people, I stand witness to a disheartening diversion of focus.

Instead of marshalling our resources and collective wisdom to face the pressing challenges that loom before us, we find ourselves mired in needless debates that obscure the clarity of our path forward.
