Therazane had already asked around for tips on touring the prime material plane on her way up.
With the experiences of other earth elemental creatures to draw on, she knew how to choose to maximize her gains.
She studied the magically generated map of Azeroth and pointed at the Silithus desert.
"I want a desert environment. This place looks quite nice!"
Herad rejected Therazane's popular choice without hesitation.

As he spoke, he marked Desolace, far to the north of the Silithus desert.
Desolace was a vast wasteland.
But many centaurs and tauren had settled there.

Only a blind person could have missed a
