But before Z'rali could reply, a Holy Light beacon appeared in front of everyone, and Prophet Velen emerged from the Holy Light.
"Hello, another Naaru. I am Velen, Prophet of the Draenei. It is a pleasure to meet you." Velen and Redpath could be considered old acquaintances. In Outland, they ran into each other constantly.

"No, I don't understand. Does the Holy Light have to be divided into different colors? Does the Holy Light have to be divided into pure and corrupted?" Redpath had no idea what the truth of the matter was.
Velen said nothing more and teleported straight back.
