The area known as the Ruins of Silvermoon makes up the western half of the city of Silvermoon, the capital of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. It is split from the reconstructed Silvermoon (the eastern half) by the Dead Scar, the path taken by Arthas Menethil and the undead Scourge on their way to the Sunwell, to resurrect the dead necromancer Kel'Thuzad. As they marched across Quel'Thalas at the bidding of the Dreadlord Tichondrius, Arthas and his warriors corrupted everything in their path. The Scourge smashed through the Elfgates defending Silvermoon from attackers, and destroyed the Rangers of Silvermoon, led by Sylvanas Windrunner, before finally reaching the Sunwell Plateau and placing Kel'Thuzad's rotted corpse into the holy waters of the Sunwell. Kel'Thuzad was resurrected as a powerful lich, and the waters of Eternity forever corrupted.
This area holds a small town, Falconwing Square, which serves as an intermediary point for new Blood Elf players between Sunstrider Isle and Silvermoon City, much like Brill, Dolanaar, Goldshire, Razor Hill, Kharanos, Bloodhoof Village, and Azure Watch. It has an inn, a mailbox, profession and class trainers, and quests within the ruins of the west half of Silvermoon. For example, a level 5 player can pick up the cooking profession and a recipe they will need to raise that profession for the next 15 levels here in the inn, in the Ruins of Silvermoon. However there are not many quests here, and is probably only good for a level or two, before you move on to the quests immediately south of the Ruins of Silvermoon or to Fairbreeze.
