If you start a Skyborne character in World of Warcraft: Forever<\/em> \u2014 one of the blue sky elves unlocked by purchasing a DLC pack \u2014 you’re awarded an item called the Ancient Heirloom very early on in the game. This ring can be equipped, but it has no stats and no apparent purpose. It’s odd to receive a ring at a low level, because these items aren’t usually found until later in the game; when I received one during the beta test, I figured it was just there to add a bit of flavor to the new race and didn’t give it a second thought.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n How wrong I was. It turns out that the ring is an instrumental part of WoW: Forever<\/em>‘s first big secret: a huge, game-spanning questline that players have yet to see to its conclusion.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Known as the Dawn Waker Secret, the sequence was discovered by the WoW Secret Finding community on Discord, and there’s a step-by-step rundown available on Wowhead. It begins at level 1 on Zephras Isle, the starting zone of the Skyborne, and extends beyond level 40 (so far). If you don’t have access to the Skyborne, it’s still possible to travel to Zephras Isle and find the ring lying around in a building.<\/p>\n The questline involves finding a special torch on the body of a guard in Duskwood, using this to uncover an ancient sword hilt on Zephras Isle, forging the hilt into a fancy sword, purifying a water globe, and much more, as you tour various spots in the game with significance to Warcraft’s most ancient elven lore, including the new Mount Hyjal high-level zone. The Ancient Heirloom ring is important, because it must be equipped for the player to see and interact with elven spirits crucial to the quest, or to reveal ancient elven vaults.<\/p>\n\n WoW Forever’s Skyborne ring hides a big quest chain
