Did you know?

Formerly, Huntress Kasparian was named Huntress Naisha.

Sisters of the Moon

The Sisters of the Moon served as wardens for the temple long before the avatar of Sargeras was buried beneath it. Even in death, the sisters maintained their vigil, but over the milennia something twisted their ability to distinguish friend from foe. Their madness slowly consumed them, and now any who enter their sacred chambers are put to death.

Overview

The Sisters of the Moon are trapped in a fading incorporal state, bound together and sharing health. Between them they maintain only enough power to sustain the physical form of one of them at a time. 

Huntress Kasparian initiates the fight, followed by Captain Yathae Moonstrike at 70% health remaining, and then followed by Priestess Lunaspyre at 40% health remaining.
