This chain kind of goes over the story with Malygos, Keristrasza and Saragosa. What's interesting is that the Daily quest actually refers to events that depend on the players, instead of some long-passed Lore.

It's kind of a sad story...

R.I.P. Keristrasza :(

Is it just me, or is the flavour text very, very wrong?

In case you are wondering why the tale is so sad:

From: WowWiki.com/Keristrasza

Keristrasza was a servant of Alexstrasza the Life-Binder, Dragonqueen and Aspect of the red dragonflight. Upon refusing to bow to the will of Malygos, Keristrasza was incarcerated within one of the blue dragonflight's augmented arcane prisons, which was then broken into pieces and scattered across Coldarra - pieces that are recovered by adventurers questing at the behest of the Wyrmrest Accord.

In gratitude, Keristrasza aids her rescuers in the fight against the Lord of Magic by luring his consort, Saragosa, to her death. After slaying his consort and luring him into battle with elements of the red dragonflight, Keristrasza is captured by Malygos, who makes her his new consort. Malygos abused her constantly, branding runes into her body and using his powerful magic to bend her will, until she finally went insane. Those who had once aided her now must enter the Nexus to release her from her tortured existence - an unfortunate but necessary end to a sad and tragic tale.

Yes, I would have to say it is indeed sad. Loyal servant and solider of the Red Dragonflight who gets captured in battle. She is driven insane by from torture and imprisonment, and it becomes our job to perform a mercy killing.

Sheesh, Blizzard---I just wanted some gold and emblems, and now I need prozac and a box of tissues. :(

''A tragic end to a sad tale. If only Malygos's abuse of Keristrasza hadn't driven her insane.''
That is Wrong

Her broken heart, War Mace of Unrequited Love... All very sad, but the question that comes up: Who is she in love with?

Is she being forced to be in love with Malygos?
Is she in love with the character for saving her from the prison and supporting her efforts throughout the quest chain, and now heartbroken because she was forced to try to kill the character?
Somebody else completely?

As many people are still fleshing out their WotLK / Northrend content in this starting zone, or even trying to wrangle some Der Wyrmruhpakt reputation, I felt this mini-guide would be extremely helpful to new and experienced players alike. It should be noted that the majority of these quests count towards Rauf und runter in der Tundra which also leads one towards . =^)

These quest series begin by discovering a Schillerndes Fragment (right-click on this item in the player's bags), dropping from one of the Zauberbinder von Kaltarras, which then starts the first quest chain .
*Player note: Do not confuse the Zauberbinder von Kaltarras (humanoids) with Spruchwirker von Kaltarras (which are dragonkin)*

Rätselhaft... which after turning in to Raelorasz at the Transitus Shield gives players...

Die Zelle where you search for two other fragments of an arcane prison (Gefängnisummantelung / Energiekern. Items acquired at this point become Verstärktes arkanes Gefängnis upon turn-in.
*Player note: Both items are found only on the two blue dragon micro-bosses (General Cerulean / Kriegshetzer Goredrak) in the center of the blue round magic circles outside of the Der Nexus fissures.*

Here it appears this chain ends, but actually continues on in a 2nd chain. If you lose your Verstärktes arkanes Gefängnis at any time, speak to Raelorasz at the Transitus Shield for a free replacement.
*Player note: Just be certain that it wasn't placed in the bank during a side trip, as there aren't any banks within a large portion of this zone (including the Hold).*

Upon right-clicking Verstärktes arkanes Gefängnis, player then releases Keristrasza who then begs for assistance to confront Malygos by talking to her once the player is ready for the Der Nexus raid zone.

Keristrasza allows players to speak to her again to continue the chain.
*Player note: If she somehow gets lost or the player drops the quest, it is best advised to go just outside of the Shield and summon her for each next quest, as other locations sometimes quest error or are incorrect areas.*

Köder und Rute has players collect 10 Kristallisierter Manasplitters (which are the pink crystal plants all over Coldarra) to make bait to beat his blue dragon guardian, Saragosa human form / Saragosa (dragon non-quest form). Pretty self-explanatory, just turn them in when done.

Once collected she calls for Saragosas Ende and gives players a Arkaner Kraftfokus with which to bait Saragosa and drag back Saragosas Leichnam for another quest.
*Player note: When ready, talk to Keristrasza and she will teleport the player to Saragosa's platform up way above. Use the Arkaner Kraftfokus to summon her and she'll arrive in dragon form then change to human form for the fight. When dead, call Keristrasza and turn in the quest, accept the next quest and stop talking to her. Speak to her again for a FREE teleport back down to the ground for the next turn-in.*

Die Roten versammeln is where she asks players to carry her to Raelorasz back at Transitus Shield (in the Prison). Turn it in!

Raelorasz then wants players to start Die Falle zuschnappen lassen by using Raelorasz' Funken to light a signal fire on some bundles of wood to the northwest of the Nexus at coords 25.5, 22.
*Player note still valid by user beachboy:
1. Open your map. Move your character so that the arrow representing your position is directly above the "N" and to the left of "The" in "The Nexus" on the map. The bundle of wood you have to light is outside, in the snow.
2. Light the bundle of wood using the item provided to you, Raelorasz' Funken.
3. Take your hands off your keyboard and mouse, sit back, and enjoy the show. After a few minutes of NPC dialog and a scene where you ride a dragon, you should complete the quest. You do not have to do ANYTHING.
4. Turn in the quest at Transitus Shield.*

~Nexus Location Map~

Finally Raelorasz asks the player to lay to rest the corrupted aspect of the Kriegsgefangene, Keristrasza, which shows her as insane probably due to being forced to become Malygos's new consort. Could also explain Keristraszas gebrochenes Herz
*Player note: Players will have to defeat all of the bosses in the Der Nexus in order to be able to finally release Keristrasza's corrupted aspect. Each boss is connected to one of the three click-able spheres to release her (Großmagistrix Telestra=Telestras Eindämmungsfeld / Anomalus=Anomalus' Eindämmungsfeld / Ormorok der Baumformer=Ormoroks Eindämmungsfeld). Proven exception is the Kommandant der Horde and Kommandant der Allianz, which are trash bosses that can be skipped, though Heroic replacements Kommandant Starkbart and Kommandant Kolurg have blue gear loot.*

FINAL NOTE: Killing each of the bosses in the Der Nexus yields MULTI-FACTION REPUTATION! For advice on defeating Keristrasza then Click Here
