The quickest way back from Moonglade in World of Warcraft: Forever is your Hearthstone. If it is on cooldown, Druids can fly home from the Druid-only flight masters in Nighthaven: Silva Fil’naveth flies Alliance Druids to Rut’theran Village on Teldrassil, and Bunthen Plainswind flies Horde Druids to Thunder Bluff. Everyone else uses Moonglade’s regular flight masters or walks out through the Timbermaw Hold tunnel.
Most people asking are new Druids who cast Teleport: Moonglade for a class quest and found no button to undo it. Below we cover why that happens, each way out, and the full trip from Moonglade back to Stormwind, Darnassus, Thunder Bluff or Orgrimmar, checked against Blizzard’s own posts as of November 12, eight days after launch.
Why You Can Get Stuck in Moonglade
Moonglade is a small zone in northern Kalimdor, tucked between Felwood and Winterspring, with the Druid town of Nighthaven on the shore of Lake Elune’ara. Druids go there more than anyone, because two of their class quests run through it: the level 10 Bear Form chain, which teaches Teleport: Moonglade, and the level 20 Cat Form quest. Our guides to getting Bear Form and getting Cat Form cover both.
The catch is the spell. In the original game, Teleport: Moonglade only went one way, into Moonglade, and later versions of World of Warcraft added the return trip. Forever is built on the original level 1 to 60 world, and Blizzard has not listed a return effect for the spell in its WoW Forever notes, so read your spell’s tooltip and plan your way out before you cast it. A level 10 Druid also knows very few flight paths and is far too low for the zones around Moonglade, which is what makes the trip home feel stuck.
Every Way Out of Moonglade
| Way out | Who can use it | Where it takes you |
|---|---|---|
| Hearthstone | Anyone | The inn you set as home |
| Silva Fil’naveth | Alliance Druids | Rut’theran Village, Teldrassil |
| Bunthen Plainswind | Horde Druids | Thunder Bluff |
| Regular flight masters | Anyone, by faction | Any flight path you already know in Kalimdor |
| Timbermaw Hold tunnel | Anyone, on foot | Felwood and Winterspring |
Hearthstone. It takes you to your home inn, with a one-hour cooldown. If you set it in Darnassus, Dolanaar, Thunder Bluff or Bloodhoof Village before the Druid quest, the trip back is one click. Our Hearthstone guide explains how to set it.
The Druid flight masters. Silva Fil’naveth and Bunthen Plainswind stand in Nighthaven and only fly Druids: Silva to Rut’theran Village at the foot of Teldrassil, Bunthen to Thunder Bluff. They are a way out, not a two-way route, so you cannot pick them as a destination on the way back in. Skyborne Druids use the one for their faction: High Order with Silva, Windshaper with Bunthen.
The regular flight masters. Moonglade also has a normal flight master for each faction: Sindrayl, the Alliance hippogryph master south of Lake Elune’ara (about 48, 67), and Faustron, the Horde wind rider master in the southwest of the zone (about 32, 67). Talk to yours once to learn Moonglade as a flight point, then fly to any point you already know. Our guide to how flight paths work explains why you can only pick destinations you have visited.
The Timbermaw Hold tunnel. On foot, Moonglade connects to Felwood and Winterspring through the furbolg tunnels of Timbermaw Hold. Felwood starts at level 45 and Winterspring at 53, as our zone level ranges show, so this is for high-level characters only.
Moonglade to Stormwind or Darnassus (Alliance)
- Fly with Silva Fil’naveth to Rut’theran Village if you are a Druid, or with Sindrayl to any Alliance point you know.
- For Darnassus, walk into the glowing portal at the foot of the great tree in Rut’theran Village. Our guide to getting to Darnassus covers the city and its boats.
- For Stormwind, take the boat from Rut’theran Village to Auberdine in Darkshore, then Forever’s ship from Auberdine to Stormwind Harbor. Blizzard’s Found Photos panel recap lists that Stormwind Harbor and Auberdine route as one of the game’s new ships.
If you know Auberdine’s flight path, Sindrayl can fly you there directly, which skips the Teldrassil boat.
Moonglade to Thunder Bluff or Orgrimmar (Horde)
- Fly with Bunthen Plainswind to Thunder Bluff if you are a Druid, or with Faustron to any Horde point you know.
- For Orgrimmar, take the wind rider from Thunder Bluff. There is no zeppelin between the two cities; our guide to getting to Thunder Bluff from Orgrimmar explains the route both ways.
- For Undercity, take the zeppelin to Tirisfal Glades from the towers outside Orgrimmar.
Tips for Your Next Trip
- Set your Hearthstone before a Druid quest that sends you to Moonglade, so the trip back is free.
- Talk to Moonglade’s regular flight master while you are there, even as a Druid. It adds Moonglade to your network for later visits.
- If a boat does not come. On November 5 Blizzard said boats and zeppelins were “becoming lost in the maelstrom,” and it put temporary portals near most docks while it worked on a fix.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get out of Moonglade in WoW Forever? Use your Hearthstone. If it is on cooldown, Druids can fly home from Silva Fil’naveth (Alliance) or Bunthen Plainswind (Horde) in Nighthaven, and anyone can use Moonglade’s regular flight masters.
Does Teleport: Moonglade take you back? In the original game it only went one way, and Blizzard has not listed a return trip for Forever. Plan on your Hearthstone or a flight.
How do I get from Moonglade to Stormwind? Fly to Rut’theran Village or Auberdine, take the boat to Auberdine if needed, then the ship to Stormwind Harbor.
How do I get from Moonglade to Thunder Bluff? Horde Druids fly straight there with Bunthen Plainswind. Other Horde characters use Faustron, the wind rider master, if they already know Thunder Bluff’s flight path.
Can non-Druids use the Moonglade flight master? Not the Druid ones in Nighthaven. Sindrayl (Alliance) and Faustron (Horde) fly every character.
