Egg gathering quest
The article currently says that the wyverns are sapient creatures who are allied with the Horde, rather than beasts of burden. The plot of Warcraft III corroborates this. However, this quest might make one wonder. If the wyverns are willing partners, why is it necessary to steal their eggs and then "train" the babies? --Illidan Rocks 19:29, 11 September 2006 (EDT)

- Oops plot hole Angry ogre
- Uhm? Why plot hole? It is normal for some wyverns to be agressive while protecting their young. To top it all, it will be more suited for them if the ones who "steal" their eggs for raising them later are strong-willed and courageous warriors, rather than puny individuals who can stray the new younglings into the paths of weakness, poachery or cooking. Moreover, they will not hand their eggs easily to unknow extrangers, who can be directly associated with poachers or future cooks wishing for a big omelette. I guess you can get my point :) If I was a wyvern, I will not let foreigners to interfere with my young, unless the individual brings a good reason for it. Wyverns have brains and you can reason with them (if you are quick before they sting you, lol) -- Ravenore, the Necroshadowmancer 17:56, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- If they allied with the Horde,why do they need to take the eggs by force?--SWM2448 18:00, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Because they are evil and crazy wyverns that are the enemies to the Horde's wyverns. Zarnks 18:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Wyverns ARE free creatures, friends of the Horde but not domesticated or enslaved, the stealing eggs thing is in WoW gameplay, merely to give quest givers something to say. PLEASE people do not base Warcraft off the Wold of Warcraft game and such quests. Baldr 00:12, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- Actually its written quest lore, not "gameplay" there is a difference.Baggins 00:22, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
Really, show me alink to said "lore" because the horde as it was so far, would do no such things. It's just because quest givers need something to say too. Baldr 18:53, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- Wow, does that mean we can discount anything in WoW we don't like? Kirkburn talk contr 19:16, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- "Players will experience the lore and story of World of Warcraft by doing quests all across Azeroth. In addition to their content and challenges, quests give rewards of experience, gold, and items."[1]Baggins 19:21, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
OK, tell me if you were a wyvern, would you not be protective of your young? Some wyverns were not saved by the orcs back in warcraft3... is it that big of a deal that thrall didnt bother to seek out and befriend every wyvern across azeroth? The point is that the horde doesn't enslave animals of force them into labor. If we base warcraft off of WoW then gee, why must i pay for my trips, so the flight guy can buy wyvern snacks at the wyvern pet care shop in org... Baldr 20:42, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
- the horde doesn't enslave animals of force them into labor ... C'mon, surely you realise the Horde today is not quite /that/ different to the original Horde. Kirkburn talk contr 01:13, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
But surely i DO believe that, tell me otherwise if i am wrong Baldr 00:47, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- Now you are just getting into the Horde right/wrong debate. This is not a fourum.--SWM2448 00:48, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
Hey i got my point across in the lines above...if you have a problem, state it reasonably. Baldr 00:05, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
- Actually if you had gotten your point across people wouldn't be disagreeing with you (the fact people are disagreeing just means that people think your point is flawed). But Sandwich is saying is that pro-horde bias, or anti-horde bias is not allowed. Only what is supported in the lore. It specifically stated that at least one orc steals eggs. BTW, as far as we know the only wyverns that joined the horde of their freewill was a "Stonetalon Mountains flight"HPG 222 back in a Warcraft III mission.Baggins 17:30, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
