Skyborne characters begin here automatically, but other players can also travel to the island.
How to Reach Zephras Isle
Skyboats connect Zephras Isle to Dalaran and Thunder Bluff, arriving approximately every five minutes.

Follow the introductory quest progression through Thendall Village, Shen'dar Village, and Valanaar. The questline is designed to bring Skyborne characters to approximately level 12.

Players can enter through roads from Redridge Mountains or Badlands. There is also a ship connecting Gadgetzan to Powderfuse Port.
Riverglades Questlines
The region's central themes involve protecting local settlements, resolving disputes, investigating attacks on travelers, and confronting ogres threatening the frontier.
One important storyline leads toward Krol'dok Stronghold, a new level 40–45 dungeon.
