"A great man once told me: "In the light, we are one".  The future is ours, and we will see Draenor rebuilt.. together." Exarch Yrel (pronounced "Yee-Rell") is a Draenei Paladin who is one of the main Alliance protagonists in the World of Warcraft / Warlords of Draenor expansion. Yrel begins her story as an acolyte who was born and raised at the temple of Karabor.  She was dedicated to her faith and spent much of her time in the temple, caring for others and showing great promise as a healer.  Her gifts caught the eye of the Prophet Velen (leader of the Draenei), who accepted her as his pupil.  Velen taught Yrel the value of leadership and sacrifice as she developed her other gifts.  However, Velen's prophetic mind also sensed Yrel would have a large role to play in the future. While at the temple, Yrel witnessed the first battle with the Iron Horde under the command of their new Warchief, Grommash Hellscream.  During their assault on Karabor, the Iron Horde captured Yrel, who remained a prisoner until she was rescued by a group of adventurers from Azeroth.  Despite having never killed anyone before, Yrel recognized the necessity and joined the adventurers.  She aided the group in any way she could, eventually helping them establish a garrison at Lunarfall.  Travelling back to Shadowmoon Valley with the adventurers, Yrel returned to Embaari Village where she was well known by the villagers.  The children flocked around her, chanting her name, joyous that she had returned safely. === Excerpts from wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Yrel === ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal Note: If you are not familiar with Yrel, you owe it to yourself to view her complete story at wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Yrel . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for viewing.
