The Bough of Corruption was the one last remnant of Xavius on Teldrassil, and was the source of the that tainted the gnarlpine, the timberlings, and other creatures. With the corruption having been buried deep within Teldrassil, it would have been impossible to strike at the source without killing the world tree itself, but the Aspects' blessing allowed Teldrassil to force the taint to the surface in a form that the night elves could destroy. They discovered that this was no new corruption, but lingering remnants of the original corruption, being pushed out by Teldrassil itself. Though already burdened by political tension and the vast destruction unleashed by the Cataclysm, the night elves worked to find the cause of their World Tree's ailment. Some time later, Teldrassil's recovery slowed, and signs of the Nightmare's corruption resurfaced.

They called the tree Teldrassil, meaning "crown of the earth" in Darnassian. The Circle of the Ancients and the wise druids led by Fandral combined their powers to grow an immense tree in the Veiled Sea. In Malfurion's absence, Archdruid Fandral Staghelm took over leadership of the night elven druids, and convinced the Circle of the Ancients in Darkshore that it was time for the night elves to create a new World Tree and regain their immortality.
