Intro
During your adventures on the Siren’s Island, you’ll have the opportunity to obtain a unique mount—Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren, a stunning Stormcrow. To acquire this mount, players must complete a hidden puzzle involving collecting a series of special keys and unlocking runestones that restrain the tempestuous bird. This guide outlines everything you need to do to obtain this remarkable mount introduced in Patch 11.0.7.
Story of Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren
Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren is a new flying mount modeled after the Stormcrow, a design present in the game files since Patch 5.4 in Mists of Pandaria. For over 11 years, players speculated about its fate and requested its addition to the game, and with Patch 11.0.7, it finally makes its debut.
In the lore, the tempestuous Stormcrow Thrayir once unleashed a devastating storm to obliterate the enemies of its mistress, the Siren Circi. Ksvir the Thunderous and Apprentice Stonecarver Valven, using the Blessing of Thorim, forged five runestones sealed by five unique keys to subdue Thrayir and halt the storm’s destruction. They succeeded in putting the bird to sleep, where it has slumbered ever since, waiting to be freed.
Quote: Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren
“In a fit of fury and despair, Thrayir conjured a nightmarish storm, meant to destroy Circi’s enemies once and for all. Even now, nearly ten thousand years later, echoes of this power still haunt the island.”
How to Obtain Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren
To unlock the flying mount Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren, you must complete the introductory storyline on Siren’s Island, then complete a rare local quest to access the Seafury Tempest, gather five Runekeys, and use them to unlock the five runestones inside the Forgotten Vault.
Unlocking the Seafury Tempest
Upon the release of Patch 11.0.7, max-level characters can travel to a new zone, Siren’s Island, by completing the introductory storyline Song of Secrets. This zone offers various activities, including story quests, regular and weekly local quests, treasure hunts, rare hunts, and archaeology. Some of these activities take place in the standard version of the zone, while others occur in an alternate, more challenging version of the island known as the Seafury Tempest, populated by tougher enemies.
To access the tempest version of Siren’s Island, you must first complete the active rare local quest (part of the achievement Siren-ity Now!), which will unlock a special mission titled The Approaching Storm. Speak with Expert Mechanic Suzy Crankbolt at Wreckage Shoals to travel to the alternate storm version of the island—or return to the regular version if needed. Most tasks for obtaining Thrayir are completed within the Seafury Tempest.

Collecting the Runekeys
Inside the Seafury Tempest, you must gather five Runekeys, each obtained through specific activities across Siren’s Island. Players will need to engage in rare hunts, treasure searches, and material gathering:
- Cyclonic Runekey: Dropped by the rare elite Zek’ul the Shipbreaker or caught while fishing nearby.
- Whirling Runekey: Dropped by the rare elite Ksvir the Forgotten.
- Turbulent Runekey: Crafted from 3 Turbulent Fragments, which can be found in specific locations marked by Kul Tiran ghosts.
- Thunderous Runekey: Crafted from 5 Thunderous Fragments, found randomly in repeatable treasure chests.
- Torrential Runekey: Crafted from 7 Torrential Fragments, dropped by creatures across the island.
Below are detailed instructions on how to obtain each key.
Cyclonic Runekey
The Cyclonic Runekey has a chance to drop from the rare elite Zek’ul the Shipbreaker, located in the Deadfin Marsh in the southwest corner of Siren’s Island, within the Seafury Tempest. This is a formidable enemy, so group assistance may be needed.
Alternatively, the key can sometimes be caught while fishing in the waters near Zek’ul’s location.

Whirling Runekey
The Whirling Runekey can drop from the rare elite Ksvir the Forgotten, located in the southern chamber of the Forgotten Vault. To access the Forgotten Vault, use the Singing Tablet found in a cave in the northern part of the island. This elite also requires group coordination to defeat.

Turbulent Runekey
The Turbulent Runekey is crafted from 3 Turbulent Fragments, located at specific points on Siren’s Island, as indicated by Kul Tiran ghosts:
- Fragment in a dirt pile near a Kul Tiran home in the western part of the island.
- Fragment in a cave in the Rotting Hollow area in the southeast.
- Fragment in the hands of a Kul Tiran ghost near a runestone in the Wounded Spirit Cave in the northern region.

Thunderous Runekey
The Thunderous Runekey is crafted from 5 Thunderous Fragments, found randomly in repeatable treasure chests scattered across Siren’s Island. These chests include:
- Runed Storm Chest: Found on land during and outside the storm (requires Runecaster’s Eye).
- Sailor’s Treasure: Found underwater around the island outside the storm (requires Blessing of the Seadweller).
- Runed Chest: Found within the Forgotten Vault during the storm.
Torrential Runekey
The Torrential Runekey is crafted from 7 Torrential Fragments, dropped at a low rate from all creatures within the Seafury Tempest. Focus on farming quickly respawning skeletons and kvaldir in the northern part of the island for efficiency.
Freeing Thrayir
Once you have collected all five Runekeys, head to the Forgotten Vault using the Singing Tablet in the northern cave. In the eastern chamber, you’ll find the slumbering Stormcrow surrounded by five runestones. Use each Runekey to deactivate the runestones and awaken Thrayir. The bird will then offer the quest Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren, rewarding the unique flying mount.
