Well I have suggestion about void elf city and New Night elf city.
Void elf city.
Well either expand the Telogrus Rift with a bigger “Rock” or what we should call it with a crater/cavern with a forest aswell, and creatures that survived and evolved by the void. As we have seen that blizzard changed the void elf hunter pet from the full void lizard to the panthera from Argus. I would like to see the forest glow and gives of a mystery as ruins of building of the race that lived in telogrus rift before Sargeras destroyed the planet and have Runes of writing that tells a story of the people living there. Similar to how the crystalsong forest looks like. It has purple/black ground, glowing plants and trees glowing light blue/purple and I absolutely love the crystalsong forest music. Blue and purple crystal her and there that Void elves uses in their city.

Night Elf city.
Well they could plant another tree sure, but there is another way, that dosen’t burn so easily. They could do like the Night elf druids have and build a city at the roots of Mount Hyjal. Together with the Furbolg (who now hate horde after being attacked and driven out of darkshore by the horde during the attack on Teldrassil) creating a tunnel system under the mountain giving accesses to all Night elf areas. Darkshore, Felwood, Moonglade, Winterspring, Mount Hyjal, Ashenvale, Azshara (Ofcourse Azshara and Ashenvale is horde territory now but doesn’t mean Night Elves can have access to them.)

Just Ideas for Void elves and Night elves.

I don’t really want to burst your bubble, but isn’t the Ren’dorei is a bit… low on population?
I mean, the Blood elves/High elves are the ~10% survivors of their race ( a race that wasn’t that numerous to begin with) … and the Ren’dorei are Umbric’s team of researchers exiled, and walked in to a trap…
Let’s not factor the insanity, how unstable are they, how many went totally insane and had to be put out of their miseries and I think its fair to assume the return of N’Zoth had a negative effect on their mind too…
(and Gonk is collecting Ren’dorei heads)
Umbric presented the Ren’dorei as an elite little force (a bit strange, considering they started out a team of scholars… ) and he was eager to toss them in to the front line
Its a minor miracle the Ren’dorei still exist!
There are High and Blood Elf in Telogrus… but we don’t really know (but safe to assume) the Ren’dorei can replicated the method that made them in the first place
(Alleria is not really a Void Elf… she consumed a fallen Naaru, not the victim of a botched ritual. And there are not many fallen Naaru around to eat to make more like her)
Sooo…
While It would be cool to see the rise of Ren’Thalas and the Ren’dorei to have their own town, but I don’t think they have the numbers to fill a small village… or actually a larger mansion, let alone a whole city or “kingdom” (same is true to the High Elf Remnants by the way)
Even the Lightforged are more numerous I think than the Void elves, and we only have a ship… (that not even ours, just kinda forgot to gave back the keys to Velen…)
Questionable whether we (Kaldorei) need a city really. Experience has taught that they are a vulnerability, and it could be argued that scattered bases would be more effective if our focus is on healing the scars left on the landscape. I quite like the idea of linking to the Furbolg, but last time I checked they were understandably still very suspicious of us, Fandral really didn’t do us any favours there. Just throwing thoughts out really, also interested in how the Circle thinks of us now we’ve gone back to the arcane?
Well it comes to Lightforged draenai, Their recruitment is that Regular Draenai goes through a bunch of trials and eventually becomes New Lightforged Draenai which you should already know right?. and if Exodar ever gets an update (Like Silvermoon also need) it would be filled with both Lightforged Draenai and regular Draenai right?
For void elves, well as I wrote in a different thread that even since TBC expansion there has been turmoil among the Blood elves Citizens about leaving the Alliance and then Lor’themar’s decision to join the horde and with Alleria Windrunner returning would have stirred the pot even further. Not all blood elves agreed to join the horde, and some stayed in Silvermoon and did not join in with the horde’s wars against the alliance and other factions. Hench why we have blood elves in Telogrus Rift which would indicate there are blood elves are leaving Silvermoon to join Alleria Windrunner (Since she is their hero from the second war) and the void elves, to learn this new found power. And as Alleria has said to Umbric and his followers that she will teach them if they join the Alliance. Same deal would be for the blood elves that is coming to Telogrus rift right? I mean I seriously doubt she will let the horde learn of this new found power since she is all about the Alliance and have always been that since second war.
Sure I agree it won’t be a “big” city since its on a space rock but that doesn’t mean they can set up other buildings on the other space rock with a garden, training area for void powers, another space rock with building for training archers and warriors etc (and if they can build up a fortress in pandaria within 3 seconds well…). you know “Keep an open mind”. And with these new High elves customizations would mean they “are” recruiting both High elves and Blood elves to join their ranks. They might not be a “race” …yet but they will be if more blood elves and high elves join the void elves. BTW there is no true number how many High elves survived the attack on Silvermoon by the Scourge except blizzard said 10% of the populations…10% of what exactly?? (there has been many speculations on how many was in SIlvermoon during the Scourge attack) and blizzard always forgetting that not all High elves was in SIlvermoon when the attack happend. There “is” High elves in Dalaran, Stormwind, human cites and in outland and what’s ingame does not count towards how many exist as a race in a game, nor does player population count. And if we are going to go by that then during beginning of legion expansion all races with in horde and alliance sent most of their forces for “one” large attack towards the legion to stop them but failed. and every race ran back to their own city and locked the doors and they didn’t have any more forces to fight the legion so it was for every race for themselves which would indicate that all races within both horde and alliance is near extinction (and yet in the next expansion they could build up a new force in the begining of BFA and Lose again on both sides). And it was up to the champions to save Azeroth alone. Sure there was few…very few individuals that join the class order halls but yet…not an army. And almost every expansion more High elves have popped out of nowhere. And if there was a number on how many individuals of each race, we would need bigger Azeroth to fit in all those numbers. Blizzard (aswell as other game companies) need to scale down the world when they make a game so there is not a area that has nothing because that would not make the world “alive”. For example Assassins creed Valhalla, its not accurate size of England, still a big world but if they did want to make it accurate it will take years to fill up those empty areas (trying to think how this area should be or this area should be so it doesn’t become just a mess) and it still would not feel right or “Alive”.
Then Night elves would be in the same boat as most allied races, not being a race at all if they do not have a place to call home. Well since the horde attack in darkshore the Furbolg have different views about the Night elves. Sure they been at odds for many years. But things happen when both enemies are attacked by a new enemy. Most times they join forces and later could become allies.
Sure when allied races was introduced and they would not have a Capital/City or starting area/land to do quest in to learn more about the race(for most allied races) I thought great, no need to level 1-20 etc. But after BFA…I was wrong, without a Capital/City or starting area/land. An origin for the race to be precise (where they come from) the race would have no soul, if they have no soul, they would be meaningless as a race. Just how I felt about the void elves when they were first was introduced when they had no story, no lore, no place to call their own except a empty space rock in space. Well that’s just my point of view.
I’ve always said it, but Gnomes (and now Mechagnomes) need a flying city made with engineering, not magic.
A steampunk Dalaran hovering over Dun Morogh.
Its possible, They have the technology if they really want to, im sure Gnomes and Mechagnomes can bust their heads together and build a flying steam fortress. The Draenai was able to build spaceships so why not, but I think the Gnomes would rather retake all of Gnomeregan their home city, which they been trying since Cataclysm. Same goes for dark iron dwarves trying to retake Shadowforge city.
The Gnomes seem to have moved into Mechagon sadly anyway.
I’ve been saying that, apart from giving some high elven hairstyles and hair colours to Void elves, to make the Alliance more appealing, Void elves could be given their own capital. Either by expanding Telogrus Rift with its own starter questing zone and capital which will be inspired by gold and navy blue decor, as well as purple crystals, or by turning Allerian Stronghold in Terrokar into a questing area and capital for Void elves. Be it Telogrus or Allerian stronghold, both will be inhabited by Void elves and High elves (such as Silver covenant High elves), who will have teamed up as a united force (Alleria and Vereesa ARE sisters after all, in the same faction, so why not make it more official?).
For Night elves, they are practically homeless at the moment, living as refugees in Stormwind. They are a pride civilization and should rebuild from scratch. It has been said they are beginning to rebuild in Mount Hyjal. Great. Mount Hyjal is a beautiful area and could be expanded to include a Night elf capital and a questing area for Night elves. With crystal clear lakes, swans, new modeled tigers available in the capital, temples of Elune, houses etc. Tigers are super popular but their models are dating back to Vanilla.
Ok, but a City is not a history, Night Elves have history in abundance, and the whole of Azeroth is dotted with the remnants of that history. After the sundering Night Elves abandoned cities, living in small camps and barrows. It wasn’t until the development of a new well that the world tree was grown. The whole point of Nordrassil was to hide the new well from the legion, and it didn’t work that well really did it? After that we have Teldrassil, the corruption of that flawed idea part of the root of the Furbolgs distrust. The Kaldorei are steeped in the history of our failings, and it is only pre the abuse of the original well, and during the isolation, that we have anything to be that proud of really. I’m just suggesting that we might in those circumstances feel that a more nomadic and scattered civilisation would be right for us. I like your idea of a the base of Hyjal, though I’d prefer Feralas, but in either case a subterranean base around a central moon well glade (Timbermaw hold as a model maybe) fits better than a City on the lines of Suramar, Zin-Ascari or Eldre’Thalas.
To answer the first one, Yes I agree either build a city on bigger rock in telogrus rift or expand Allerian stronghold. Still would like to see glowing trees and plants if the city is build in telogrus rift 
Second one. Yeah and felwood could also become a Night elven forest again now that the cenarion circle know/or “should know” (after so many years being in outland studying the fel) on how to remove fel from forest. well there are new night sabers models from the darkshore that was introduced in BFA.
Tyrande Whisperwind has been so focused on Revenge, she has forgotten the people back home that is still “alive”. but maybe its time for them to have a new leader.

Ohh Im sure the Night elves will become more savage and wild than ever before going forward for the night elves after shadowlands, but that doesn’t mean they can’t have a city (and they haven’t come to that stage yet that the Vulpera is, and if vulpera wanted to continue to be nomadic, then they should stayed Vol’dun but they also know that they can’t continue living as nomadic race if they want still want to exist in Azeroth because they are too few…way too few and soon will vanish from Azeroth as a race.) but if they night elves is to evolve and move on, they need to work together, not split up into smaller factions.

I think you missunderstood my idea for the Night elf city, it would not have stone building as they had in Teldrassil or the cites they build in the past. It would be build more like the Druids barrows (caves) and tree roots of the worlds tree would make pods hanging down from the ceiling of the roots that forms as houses and Moonwell water running down from the world tree above making plants glow. Yes I like the idea of things glowing in dark places so there is no need for torches. And the tunnel system will connect to the Furbolgs barrows and new places around the north of Kalimdor.

Honestly, the roots of Nordrassil in game are large enough that you can totally revamp them into an actual city, with either rope-ladder bridges (think Thunder Bluff) connecting each root or actual wooden bridges (think Ardenweald/Val’Sharah), and the surrounding hills can be built on for more marble-architecture.
I don’t exactly foresee anything for the Void Elves, how are they meant to start a new city? With what numbers? Perhaps a village or an elaboration on the Rift could be nice, though I suspect none of the Allied races will get anything for them, since they’re part of BfA and thus old content. Even Lightforged are mainly using Legion assets.
An underground Night Elf city is an interesting idea, but the displacement of nature to do so and potentially uprooting trees for it on such a large scale is definitely something the elves don’t want to do. We’ve seen underground tunnels and caves on a smaller scale, but expanding that into a city will be annoying to navigate, since it’s a more claustrophobic Undercity pmuch.
Ren’thalas sounds really cool. But as people above stated, there aren’t many Void Elves in the lore that could have a city. More like a small town like Allerian Hold in Terrokar. BUT - as it seems, High Elves are combining forces with them (not sure if it’s confirmed lorewise, but I’m pretty sure Blizzard would like to combine Void and High elves since they gave us the customization. So they could make a smaller “city” or town for both Void and High elves. That would be really cool. 2 sisters ruling over it
Edit: The good spot for their place to call home would be at that tower above Stratholme. I think Blizzard originally wanted that to be part of Void Elf recruitment scenario, but scrapped it. It’s in the files.
That certainly works me Eloth.
void elf worty maybe town somewhere
and yet the Darkspear trolls manage to build their hut city on an island even if thrall saved a handful of them back in warcraft 3 and considering all that is happend to them…they should not exist anymore in azeroth (their clan that is) I mean no more should be living at this point but they do…somehow.
Well I did say “not a big city” considering you don’t have much space on a space rock I mean it would not be the size of Silvermoon or Orgrimmar or Stormwind. But it can be expanded on the smaller space rocks as I said one building for training archers and warriors on one space rock, one for new Recruits and veterans of the Ren’dorai to train in the ways of the void etc etc.
And for Night elf city, blizzard could make a transports to each entrance to the tunnel system that takes you to the Night elf city so you don’t have to walk all the way. Maybe a creature that works as a taxi. The problem with navigation of Undercity is that each districts looked exactly the same. but im sure for the horde players after so many years they learned how to find the right shop or inn or flightmaster in undercity.
