Lore
The Twig of the World Tree is a rare two-handed mace from classic World of Warcraft that can drop from level 58-63 monsters across the world. The name references the World Trees, enormous trees created by night elf druids; specifically, it presumably refers to either Nordrassil or Teldrassil, as those were the only two World Trees that had been introduced in Warcraft lore by the time of classic World of Warcraft.
Nordrassil, meaning "Crown of the Heavens" in Darnassian, is the original World Tree of the night elves, located on the new Well of Eternity, atop Mount Hyjal. It granted the elves immortality, and allowed the druids to enter the Emerald Dream, until the Battle of Mount Hyjal, which removed those blessings. Nordrassil's roots grow deep into the earth, spreading life-giving energy across the world. This is similar to what the first Well of Eternity did before it was destroyed.
Teldrassil (pronounced TELL-druh-sill) is an island extended from the second World Tree situated off Kalimdor's northwestern coast. It is the new home of the reclusive night elves and a stunning testament to the power of their magic and connection with nature. The behemoth of a tree now dwarfs even Nordrassil, and is large enough that a decent amount of land has emerged atop its gargantuan limbs. Trees, flora, and fauna are now verdantly spreading across the magical tree.
Teldrassil holds the entire night elf homeland and its capital, Darnassus, in its boughs. This land shares the tree's name and is covered in twilit forest. The new tree was not blessed by the Aspects at its birth, unlike its predecessor, which left it vulnerable to corruption. However, just before the Cataclysm, it did receive the blessings of Alexstrasza and Ysera.
In World of Warcraft, Teldrassil serves as the starting zone for night elves. Unlike most starting zones, Teldrassil sees little PvP action because, barring flying mounts, Horde players have to cross through Rut'theran Village and Darnassus. Prior to Cataclysm, the only way for Horde players to get to Teldrassil was via ship from Auberdine.
