Zesqua was a powerful water elemental that had been trapped in the Timeless Isle and eventually corrupted by the pollution of the leper gnomes in the area. Due to the interference of Uther Menethil and his companions, she had started to become purified.
Description
Zesqua was specifically a water spirit, a variety of water elemental that protected bodies of its element. When she first appeared, her body was severely polluted by nuclear fallout which had poisoned her waters and left her in extreme pain and insanity, though during the first steps of her purification, the clarity of her mind and waters had started to return.
Due to her role as a guardian spirit, she was protective of the domain she was bound to, and the entities that dwelt within it. However, she was soft-spoken and seemingly gentle when not influenced by the pain and corruption of the pollution.

Chapter Five: Civil War
When Uther Menethil and his companions stumbled into Zesqua's territory, she and the sprites corrupted by her tainted waters lashed out. However, Riff was able to identify that it seemed the entity was sick, and he proclaimed he wished to help her, which initiated the rest of the group to try and cleanse her of the pollution rather than directly fight. They were successful, and some amount of clarity returned to Zesqua's mind, though her waters were still tainted and it would take time for her to fully recover.
The leper gnome commander Razlo Crushcog happened upon the scene and voiced that it was his intention to contain the elemental, as she was an important piece in Silco Thermaplugg's plans of taking out Arcturus Mechagon. Gilveradin Windrunner and Uther were vocally insistent on the elemental being left where she was, but before Razlo could resort to more aggressive negotiations, he was recalled by Silco and told to bring the new arrivals with him.
However, later Zesqua was still contained by the leper gnomes and brought back for study, though the deal Silco made with Uther and his companions was that they would not use her for whatever plans they had fabricated unless the party's alternative fell through, and Riff was also permitted to speak with her during his time with the leper gnomes. Zesqua's status following the assault on Mechagon, however, was unknown.

- Explaining what happened to her
- This… poison. It consumes. It clouds. I don’t remember… I don’t remember… I do not know. I only know the pain. My waters are clouded and clogged… this place is stagnant. Deep stagnant. My children are lost… my face forgotten.
