The dead Draenei girl Uuna from World of Warcraft is more than a “pet” – she is getting her own quest line!
With the release of WoW Patch 7.3 Return to Argus we have already reported on the little girl Uuna. It seemed particularly macabre that the spirit of the dead Draenei child has become a “pet” for players, dropped by the Faceless One in Argus.
The Faceless One belongs to the Ur’zul. These are special demons that are made from the bodies and souls of tortured Draenei. Uuna was also bound into such a body, which never gives her soul peace.
Evidently, Blizzard had more plans for Uuna. The game files from Patch 7.3.5 reveal that there will be a scenario involving Uuna. Her soul is missing.
Uuna’s soul must be saved
The players are tasked with rescuing Uuna’s soul from a strange intermediary realm. Presumably, this plane lies between the physical world and the Shadowlands. The description states that the player “has no power in this place. The inhabitants cannot be harmed by mortals.” This suggests a stealth or even dialogue mission.
It is also possible that we have to escort Uuna out of this shadow world while she is attacked by previously unknown creatures that the player needs to eliminate.
In any case, the quest is full of dialogues in which Uuna recounts her fear and the terror she has been experiencing since her body and soul were merged into the Ur’zul.
Later in the quest line, Uuna will experience a journey through Azeroth. She will see Pandaria, Dalaran, and the culture of the Draenei who were able to flee from Argus.
Uuna’s fate is still unclear
The exact ending of the quest line is still uncertain. Either players will lead Uuna’s soul into the light and she will be considered “saved” and find eternal peace, or the darkness will swallow her at the end of the mission. Sound files exist for both scenarios, with the swallowing by darkness potentially being just a voice line if players fail during the quest.
Whether Uuna’s quest line will already appear with the next patch 7.3.5 or only with the release of Battle for Azeroth is still unclear.
Many players had complained in the forums at the launch of Patch 7.3 that it was quite macabre to keep the spirit of a dead girl as a “pet”. It may be that Blizzard is trying to calm the community with this quest retrospectively – or that this was planned a long time ago. Because the implementation of “Uuna” seemed strange to many back then.
Have you seen that Suramar will soon become a city of the Horde?
