Around Azeroth: Sunset, with Naga
Reader Milosh sends us this shot which, while we weren't given a specific location for it, must be from Azshara somewhere. (Sure, there are Naga in Outland, but Outland skies are much more exotic than this ordinary starry night.) However, I don't recall running into this precise temple during my last explorations of Azshara -- anyone out there who can specifically pinpoint it for us?
Update: My mailbox has been flooded with people making suggestions for where this shot is actually located. Most commenters pinpoint it as Bloodmyst Isle in the Draenei starting area (sorry, folks -- I've never seriously attempted leveling a Draenei!), and now looking at the reddish sky, I can see the resemblance to that zone. However, a few people ademantly believe the shot was taken on an island off Desolace, and the sky color is simply due to the time of day. However, for now, Bloodmyst seems the more likely location.
Do you have a unique shot of Azeroth or Outland that you'd like to show off to the rest of the world? Tell us about it by e-mailing aroundazeroth@gmail.com! Or perhaps you'd just like to see more of your pics from Around Azeroth.

There's some naga islands off the coast of Desolace for your exploring pleasure as well.

I think you have to destroy the statue (it's of Queen Azshara) during one of the Bloodmyst Isle quests.

Yeah, that's from an island off Bloodmyst. Pain in the ass to get to the top, too-it's not that hard, but it feels like you have to kill off half the Naga on Azeroth to finally get to the statue.

Like others said, it's an area from Bloodmyst Isle, where you have to burn a statue.
Fun quest in my Draenei's early days :)

Bloodmyst isle, best place to level 1-20 as Alliance, the island shares the same geometry as that one off the coast of Hillsbrad Foothills. ;)

Hey! I think it might be Bloodmyst Isle.
Just a hunch...

I'm not sure but it kind of looks like Bloodmyst Isle

It's Bloodmyst Isle you idiot.
Pawnmaster Aug 16th 2007 11:56AM
this is clearly in Ironforge.

I don't think anyone in the 10 previous threads have mentioned it yet but I think its actually in Bloodymyst Isle.

Oh - After doing some research I found it's NOT Bloodmyst Isle. It is, in fact, in Ironforge.

You updated to say it, but you say you've never leveled a Draenei. Is there ANYONE at WoWInsider who plays Alliance? Is BigRedKitty the only Alliance friend we have at WoWInsider?

Absolutely definitely 100% sure that it is an island to the East of Bloodmyst. There's a quest where you have to go there, destroy the statue, and kill the beast that spawns saying it was protecting it.
Anyone that has played Draenei would know this.

It's in the the Naga Ward of Ironforge.
