A dracthyr racial mount. Treysh, the quartermaster in Morqut Village on the Forbidden Reach, sells it for 40 gold to dracthyr, and to any other character that is Exalted with the Obsidian Warders (Alliance) or the Dark Talons (Horde). Dracthyr can also buy it from Tethalash behind the Obsidian Enclave in Valdrakken (25.5, 33.6), and a new dracthyr may pick it as the reward of the quest Cavalry Has Its Place in the starting zone.

Before you go
- A dracthyr character, or Exalted with the Obsidian Warders (Alliance) or the Dark Talons (Horde) on another race: Forbidden Reach quests, the envoy dailies in Morqut Village and the world quests there · about 15 h over 5 weeks
- The Forbidden Reach opened at level 70: Hidden Legacies from Kurazidaia at the Seat of the Aspects in Valdrakken and the quests after it (a later character can skip them at Kurazidaia) · about 0.75 h
- 40 gold
In all: about 15.8 h of play, spread over 5 weeks, 40 gold, starting from nothing.
Getting there
/way The Forbidden Reach 35.5 59.4 - Take the portal from Wizard's Sanctum to Valdrakken*
- Fly the rest of the way
- Take the portal from Orgrimmar to Valdrakken*
- Fly the rest of the way
/way is for the TomTom addon. Travel times are estimates: flying at 55 yards a second in a straight
line and 30 seconds for a portal. A star marks a portal that needs a quest or other unlock done first.
Notes and sources
The item reads: must be dracthyr, exalted with the Obsidian Warders (Alliance), or exalted with the Dark Talons (Horde). The wiki says Tethalash in Valdrakken sells to dracthyr only, so the place given is Treysh in Morqut Village, where the wiki has other races buying at Exalted; a dracthyr is better served in Valdrakken. The mount is account-wide once learned, so on an account with any dracthyr the reputation is not needed at all.
The time to Exalted on another race is the weak figure: only single quest amounts were found, and a 2024 Wowhead comment from a non-dracthyr who bought all the vorquins does not say what it took.
Wowhead lists a second Treysh, the level 12-60 one of the dracthyr starting version of the zone, which other characters cannot reach.
Confidence in this entry: medium. Looked up in 2026.
