History of Warcraft:The Dark Portal and the Fall of Stormwind

As Kil'jaeden prepared the Horde for its invasion of Azeroth, Medivh continued to fight for

his soul against Sargeras. wow goldKing Llane, the noble

monarch of Stormwind, wow goldgrew wary of the darkness

which seemed to taint the spirit of his former friend. wow

goldKing Llane shared his concerns with Anduin Lothar, the last descendent of the Arathi

bloodline, wow goldwhom he named his lieutenant-at-arms.

Even so, wow goldneither man could have imagined that

Medivh's slow descent into madness would bring about the horrors that were to come.

As a final incentive, wow goldSargeras promised to

bestow great power upon Gul'dan if he agreed to lead the Horde to Azeroth. Through Medivh,

Sargeras told the warlock that he could become a living god if he found the undersea tomb

where the Guardian Aegwynn had placed Sargeras' crippled body nearly a thousand years

before. wow goldGul'dan agreed and decided that once the

denizens of Azeroth were beaten, he would find the legendary tomb and claim his reward.

Assured that the Horde would serve his purposes, wow

goldSargeras ordered the invasion to begin. wow gold

Through a joint effort, wow goldMedivh and the warlocks

of the Shadow Council opened the dimensional gateway known as the Dark Portal. This portal

bridged the distance between Azeroth and Draenor, wow

goldand it was large enough that armies might pass through it. Gul'dan dispatched orc

scouts through the portal to survey the lands which they would conquer. The returning scouts

assured the Shadow Council that the world of Azeroth was ripe for the taking.

Still convinced that Gul'dan's corruption would destroy his people, Durotan spoke out

against the warlocks once more. wow goldThe brave

warrior claimed that warlocks were destroying the purity of the orcish spirit and that this

reckless invasion would be their doom. wow goldGul'dan,

unable to risk killing such a popular hero, wow goldwas

forced to exile Durotan and his Frostwolf Clan into the far reaches of this new world.

After the exiled Frostwolves charged through the portal, wow

goldonly a few orc clans followed. wow goldThese

orcs quickly set up a base of operations within the Black Morass, a dark and swampy area far

to the east of the kingdom of Stormwind. wow goldAs the

orcs began to branch out and explore the new lands, wow

goldthey came into immediate conflict with the human defenders of Stormwind. Though

these skirmishes usually ended quickly, wow goldthey did

much to illustrate the weaknesses and strengths of both rival species. Llane and Lothar were

never able to gather accurate data of the orcs' numbers and could only guess at how great a

force they would have to contend with. wow goldAfter a

few years the majority of the orcish Horde had crossed into Azeroth, and Gul'dan deemed that

the time for the primary strike against humanity had come. The Horde launched its full might

against the unsuspecting kingdom of Stormwind. wow gold

As the forces of Azeroth and the Horde clashed across the kingdom, internal conflicts began

to take their toll on both armies. wow goldKing Llane,

who believed the bestial orcs to be incapable of conquering Azeroth, contemptuously held his

position at his capital of Stormwind. wow goldHowever,

Sir Lothar became convinced that the battle should be taken directly to the enemy, and he

was forced to choose between his convictions and his loyalty to the king. Choosing to follow

his instincts, wow goldLothar stormed Medivh's tower-

fortress of Karazhan with the help of the wizard's young apprentice, Khadgar. Khadgar and

Lothar succeeded in vanquishing the possessed Guardian, whom they confirmed to be the source

of the conflict. World of Warcraft GoldBy killing

Medivh's body, World of Warcraft GoldLothar and the

young apprentice inadvertently banished the spirit of Sargeras to the abyss. As a

consequence, World of Warcraft Goldthe pure, virtuous

spirit of Medivh was also allowed to live on... and wander the astral plane for many years

to come. World of Warcraft Gold

Although Medivh had been defeated, World of Warcraft

Goldthe Horde continued to dominate the defenders of Stormwind. As the Horde's victory

drew nearer, World of Warcraft GoldOrgrim Doomhammer,

one of the greatest orc chieftains, World of Warcraft

Goldbegan to see the depraved corruption that had spread throughout the clans since

their time in Draenor. World of Warcraft GoldHis old

comrade, Durotan, World of Warcraft Goldreturned from

exile and warned him yet again of Gul'dan's treachery. World

of Warcraft GoldIn speedy retribution, World of Warcraft

GoldGul'dan's assassins murdered Durotan and his family, leaving only his infant son

alive. World of Warcraft GoldUnknown to Doomhammer was

the fact that Durotan's infant son was found by the human officer, Aedelas Blackmoore, and

taken as a slave. World of Warcraft Gold

That infant orc would one day rise to become the greatest leader his people would ever know.

Incensed by Durotan's death, World of Warcraft

GoldOrgrim set out to free the Horde from demonic corruption and ultimately assumed the

role of warchief of the Horde by killing Gul'dan's corrupt puppet, Blackhand. Under his

decisive leadership the relentless Horde finally laid siege to Stormwind Keep. King Llane

had severely underestimated the might of the Horde, World of

Warcraft Goldand he watched helplessly as his kingdom fell to the green-skinned

invaders. World of Warcraft GoldUltimately King Llane

was assassinated by one of the Shadow Council's finest killers: the half-orc, Garona.

Lothar and his warriors, World of Warcraft Goldreturning

home from Karazhan, World of Warcraft Goldhoped to stem

the loss of life and save their once-glorious homeland. Instead, they returned too late and

found their beloved kingdom in smoking ruins. World of

Warcraft GoldThe orcish Horde continued to ravage the countryside and claimed the

surrounding lands for its own. Forced into hiding, World of

Warcraft GoldLothar and his companions swore a grim oath to reclaim their homeland at

any cost. World of Warcraft Gold

History of Warcraft:Rise of the Horde

The orcs became increasingly aggressive under the secret control of Gul'dan and his Shadow

Council. buy wow goldThey constructed massive arenas

where the orcs honed their warrior skills in trials of combat and death. During this period,

a few clan chieftains spoke out against the growing depravity in their race. One such

chieftain, Durotan of the Frostwolf clan, buy wow

goldwarned against the orcs' losing themselves to hate and fury. His words fell on deaf

ears, buy wow goldhowever, as stronger chieftains such

as Grom Hellscream of the Warsong clan stepped forward to champion the new age of warfare

and dominance. buy wow gold

Kil'jaeden knew that the orc clans were almost ready, buy

wow goldbut he needed to be certain of their ultimate loyalty. In secret, he had the

Shadow Council summon Mannoroth the Destructor, buy wow

goldthe living vessel of destruction and rage. buy wow

goldGul'dan called the clan chieftains together and convinced them that drinking

Mannoroth's raging blood would make them utterly invincible. Led by Grom Hellscream, all the

clan chiefs except Durotan drank and thereby sealed their fates as slaves to the Burning

Legion. buy wow goldEmpowered by Mannoroth's rage, the

chieftains unwittingly extended this subjugation to their unsuspecting brethren.

Consumed with the curse of this new bloodlust, cheap wow

goldthe orcs sought to unleash their fury on any who stood before them. Sensing that the

time had come, cheap wow goldGul'dan united the warring

clans into a single unstoppable Horde. cheap wow

goldHowever, cheap wow goldknowing that the various

chieftains like Hellscream and Orgrim Doomhammer would vie for overall supremacy, Gul'dan

set up a puppet warchief to rule over this new Horde. cheap

wow goldBlackhand the Destroyer, cheap wow golda

particularly depraved and vicious orc warlord, cheap wow

goldwas chosen to be Gul'dan's puppet. cheap wow

goldUnder Blackhand's command, cheap wow goldthe

Horde set out to test itself against the simple draenei.

Over the course of a few months, cheap wow goldthe Horde

eradicated nearly every draenei living on Draenor. cheap wow

goldOnly a scattered handful of survivors managed to evade the orcs' awesome wrath.

Flushed with victory, cheap wow goldGul'dan reveled in

the Horde's power and might. cheap wow goldStill, he

knew that without any enemies to fight, cheap wow

goldthe Horde would consume itself with endless infighting in its unstoppable appetite

for glorious slaughter. cheap wow gold

Kil'jaeden knew that the Horde was finally prepared. cheap

wow goldThe orcs had become the Burning Legion's greatest weapon. The cunning demon

shared his knowledge with his waiting master, cheap wow

goldand Sargeras agreed that the time of his revenge had finally come.

History of Warcraft:Kil'jaeden and the Shadow Pact

Around the time of Medivh's birth on Azeroth, buy wow

goldKil'jaeden the Deceiver sat and brooded amongst his followers within the Twisting

Nether. buy wow goldThe cunning demonlord, under orders

of his master, buy wow goldSargeras, was plotting the

Burning Legion's second invasion of Azeroth. buy wow

goldThis time he would not allow any mistakes. buy wow

goldKil'jaeden surmised that he needed a new force to weaken Azeroth's defenses before

the Legion even set foot upon the world. buy wow goldIf

the mortal races, buy wow goldsuch as the night elves

and dragons, buy wow goldwere forced to contend with a

new threat, they would be too weak to pose any real resistance when the Legion's true

invasion arrived. buy wow gold

It was at this time that Kil'jaeden discovered the lush world of Draenor floating peacefully

within the Great Dark Beyond. cheap wow goldHome to the

shamanistic, cheap wow goldclan-based orcs and the

peaceful draenei, cheap wow goldDraenor was as idyllic

as it was vast. cheap wow goldThe noble orc clans roamed

the open prairies and hunted for sport, cheap wow

goldwhile the inquisitive draenei built crude cities within the world's towering cliffs

and peaks. cheap wow goldKil'jaeden knew that Draenor's

denizens had great potential to serve the Burning Legion if they could be cultivated

properly. cheap wow gold

Of the two races, wow goldKil'jaeden saw that the

warrior orcs were more susceptible to the Legion's corruption. He enthralled the elder orc

shaman, wow goldNer'zhul, in much the same way that

Sargeras brought Queen Azshara under his control in ages past. Using the cunning shaman as

his conduit, wow goldthe demon spread battle lust and

savagery throughout the orc clans. Before long, wow

goldthe spiritual race was transformed into a bloodthirsty people. Kil'jaeden then urged

Ner'zhul and his people to take the last step: wow

goldto give themselves over entirely to the pursuit of death and war. Yet the old

shaman, wow goldsensing that his people would be

enslaved to hatred forever, wow goldsomehow resisted the

demon's command.

Frustrated by Ner'zhul's resistance, wow goldKil'jaeden

searched for another orc who would deliver his people into the Legion's hands. The clever

demonlord finally found the willing disciple he sought - Ner'zhul's ambitious apprentice,

Gul'dan. wow goldKil'jaeden promised Gul'dan untold

power in exchange for his utter obedience. wow goldThe

young orc became an avid student of demonic magic and developed into the most powerful

mortal warlock in history. wow goldHe taught other young

orcs the arcane arts and strove to eradicate the orcs' shamanistic traditions. Gul'dan

showed a new brand of magic to his brethren, World of

Warcraft Golda terrible new power that reeked of doom.

Kil'jaeden, seeking to tighten his hold over the orcs, World

of Warcraft Goldhelped Gul'dan found the Shadow Council, a secretive sect that

manipulated the clans and spread the use of warlock magics throughout Draenor. As more and

more orcs began to wield warlock magics, World of Warcraft

Goldthe gentle fields and streams of Draenor began to blacken and fade. Over time, the

vast prairies the orcs World of Warcraft Goldhad called

home for generations withered away, World of Warcraft

Goldleaving only red barren soil. World of Warcraft

GoldThe demon energies were slowly killing the world.

History of Warcraft:The Last Guardian

The Guardian Aegwynn grew powerful over the years and used the Tirisfal energies to greatly

extend her life. wow goldFoolishly believing that she

had defeated Sargeras for good, wow goldshe continued to

safeguard the world from the demon king's minions for nearly nine hundred years. However,

the Council of Tirisfal finally decreed that her stewardship had come to an end. The Council

ordered Aegwynn to return to Dalaran so that they could choose a new successor for the

Guardian power. wow goldYet Aegwynn, ever distrustful of

the Council, decided to choose a successor on her own. World

of Warcraft Gold

The proud Aegwynn planned to give birth to a son whom she would divest her power to. She had

no intention of allowing the Order of Tirisfal to manipulate her successor as they had tried

to manipulate her. wow goldTraveling to the southern

nation of Azeroth, wow goldAegwynn found the perfect man

to father her son: wow golda skilled human magician

known as Nielas Aran. wow goldAran was the court

conjuror and advisor for Azeroth's king. wow goldAegwynn

seduced the magician and conceived a son by him. World of

Warcraft GoldNielas' natural affinity for magic would run deep within the unborn child

and define the tragic steps the child would later take. The power of Tirisfal was also

implanted in the child, World of Warcraft Goldyet it

wasn't to awaken until he reached physical maturity. World

of Warcraft Gold

Time passed, wow goldand Aegwynn gave birth to her son

in a secluded grove. wow goldNaming the boy Medivh,

which means "keeper of secrets" in the high elven tongue, Aegwynn believed that the boy

would mature to become the next Guardian. wow

goldUnfortunately the malignant spirit of Sargeras, which had been hiding inside her,

had possessed the defenseless child while it was still in her womb. Aegwynn had no idea that

the world's newest Guardian was already possessed by its greatest nemesis.

Certain that her baby was healthy and sound, wow

goldAegwynn delivered young Medivh to the court of Azeroth and left him there to be

raised by his mortal father and his people. wow goldShe

then wandered into the wilderness and prepared to pass into whatever afterlife awaited her.

Medivh grew to become a strong boy and had no idea of the potential power of his Tirisfalin

birthright. World of Warcraft Gold

Sargeras bided his time until the youth's power manifested itself. By the time Medivh had

reached his teenage years, wow goldhe had become very

popular in Azeroth for his magical prowess and often went off on adventures with his two

friends: Llane, wow goldthe prince of Azeroth, and

Anduin Lothar, World of Warcraft Goldone of the last

descendents of the Arathi bloodline. World of Warcraft

GoldThe three boys constantly caused mischief around the kingdom, but they were well

liked by the general citizenry. World of Warcraft Gold

When Medivh reached the age of fourteen, wow goldthe

cosmic power inside him awakened and clashed with the pervasive spirit of Sargeras that

lurked within his soul. wow goldMedivh fell into a

catatonic state which lasted for many years. wow

goldWhen he awakened from his coma, wow goldhe found

that he had grown to adulthood, World of Warcraft

Goldand his friends Llane and Anduin had become the regents of Azeroth. Though he wished

to use his incredible World of Warcraft Goldnewfound

powers to protect the land he called home, World of Warcraft

Goldthe dark spirit of Sargeras twisted his thoughts and emotions towards an insidious

end. World of Warcraft Gold

Sargeras reveled within the darkening heart of Medivh, wow

goldfor he knew that his plans World of Warcraft

Goldfor the second invasion of the world were nearing completion, and that the world's

last Guardian would bring them all to fruition. World of

History of Warcraft:War of the Three Hammers

The dwarves of Ironforge Mountain lived in peace for many long centuries. However, their

society grew too large within the confines of their mountain cities. Though the mighty High

King, Modimus Anvilmar, buy wow goldruled over all

dwarves with justice and wisdom, three powerful factions had arisen amongst the dwarven

society.

The Bronzebeard clan, buy wow goldruled by Thane Madoran

Bronzebeard, buy wow goldheld close ties to the High

King and stood as the traditional defenders of Ironforge Mountain. The Wildhammer clan,

ruled by Thane Khardros Wildhammer, buy wow

goldinhabited the foothills and crags around the base of the mountain and sought to gain

more control within the city. buy wow goldThe third

faction, the Dark Iron clan, was ruled by the sorcerer-thane Thaurissan. The Dark Irons hid

within the deepest shadows under the mountain and plotted against both their Bronzebeard and

the Wildhammer cousins.

For a time the three factions kept a tenuous peace, buy wow

goldbut tensions erupted when High King Anvilmar passed away from old age. The three

ruling clans went to war for control of Ironforge itself. The dwarf civil war raged under

the earth for many years. buy wow goldEventually the

Bronzebeards, who had the largest standing army, banished the Dark Irons and Wildhammers

from under the mountain.

Khardros and his Wildhammer warriors traveled north through the barrier gates of Dun Algaz,

and they founded their own kingdom within the distant peak of Grim Batol. There, the

Wildhammers thrived and rebuilt their stores of treasure. Thaurissan and his Dark Irons did

not fare as well. buy wow goldHumiliated and enraged by

their defeat, buy wow goldthey vowed revenge against

Ironforge. Leading his people far to the south, Thaurissan founded a city (which he named

after himself) within the beautiful Redridge Mountains. Prosperity and the passing of years

did little to ease the Dark Iron's rancor toward their cousins. Thaurissan and his sorceress

wife, Modgud, buy wow goldlaunched a two-pronged assault

against both Ironforge and Grim Batol. The Dark Irons were intent on claiming all of Khaz

Modan for their own.

The Dark Iron armies smashed against their cousins' strongholds and very nearly took both

kingdoms. However, buy wow goldMadoran Bronzebeard

ultimately led his clan to a decisive victory over Thaurissan's sorcerous army. Thaurissan

and his servants fled back to the safety of their city, buy

wow goldunaware of the events cheap wow

goldtranspiring at Grim Batol, cheap wow goldwhere

Modgud's army would fare no better against Khardros and his Wildhammer warriors.

As she confronted the enemy warriors, buy wow goldModgud

used her powers to strike fear into their hearts. Shadows moved at her command, and dark

things crawled up from the depths of the earth to stalk the Wildhammers in their own halls.

Eventually Modgud broke through the gates and laid siege to the fortress itself. The

Wildhammers fought desperately, buy wow goldKhardros

himself wading through the roiling masses to slay the sorceress queen. With their queen

lost, the Dark Irons fled before the fury of the Wildhammers. They raced south toward their

king's stronghold, buy wow goldonly to meet the armies

of Ironforge, cheap wow goldwhich had come to aid Grim

Batol. Crushed between two armies, cheap wow goldthe

remaining Dark Iron forces were utterly destroyed.

The combined armies of Ironforge and Grim Batol then turned south, intent on destroying

Thaurissan and his Dark Irons once and for all. buy wow

goldThey had not gone far when Thaurissan's fury resulted in a spell of cataclysmic

proportions. buy wow goldSeeking to summon a

supernatural minion that would ensure his victory, buy wow

goldThaurissan called upon the ancient powers sleeping beneath the world. To his shock,

and ultimately his doom, cheap wow goldthe creature that

emerged was more terrible than any nightmare he could have imagined.

Ragnaros the Firelord, buy wow goldimmortal lord of all

fire elementals, had been banished by the Titans when the world was young. Now, freed by

Thaurissan's call, buy wow goldRagnaros erupted into

being once again. cheap wow goldRagnaros' apocalyptic

rebirth into Azeroth shattered the Redridge Mountains and created a raging volcano at the

center of the devastation. cheap wow goldThe volcano,

known as Blackrock Spire, cheap wow goldwas bordered by

the Searing Gorge to the north and the Burning Steppes to the south. Though Thaurissan was

killed by the forces he had unleashed, cheap wow goldhis

surviving brethren were ultimately enslaved by Ragnaros and his elementals. They remain

within the Spire to this day. cheap wow gold

Witnessing the horrific devastation and the fires spreading across the southern mountains,

King Madoran and King Khardros halted their armies and hastily turned back towards their

kingdoms, buy wow goldunwilling to face the awesome

wrath of Ragnaros. cheap wow gold

The Bronzebeards returned to Ironforge and rebuilt their glorious city. The Wildhammers also

returned home to Grim Batol. buy wow goldHowever, the

death of the Modgud had left an evil stain on the mountain fortress, and the Wildhammers

found it uninhabitable. buy wow goldThey were bitter in

their hearts over the loss of their beloved home. cheap wow

goldKing Bronzebeard offered the Wildhammers a place to live within the borders of

Ironforge, cheap wow goldbut the Wildhammers steadfastly

refused. cheap wow goldKhardros took his people north

towards the lands of Lordaeron. cheap wow goldSettling

within the lush forests of the Hinterlands, cheap wow

goldthe Wildhammers crafted the city of Aerie Peak, where the Wildhammers grew closer to

nature and even bonded with the mighty gryphons of the area.

Seeking to retain relations and trade with their cousins, the dwarves of Ironforge

constructed two massive arches, the Thandol Span, buy wow

goldto bridge the gap between Khaz Modan and Lordaeron. Bolstered by mutual trade, the

two kingdoms prospered. buy wow goldAfter the deaths of

Madoran and Khardros, cheap wow goldtheir sons jointly

commissioned two great statues in honor of their fathers. The two statues would stand guard

over the pass into the southlands, cheap wow goldwhich

had become volcanic in the wake of Ragnaros' scorching presence. They served as both a

warning to all who would attack the dwarven kingdoms, cheap

wow goldand as a reminder of what price the Dark Irons paid for their crimes.

The two kingdoms retained close ties for some years, buy wow

goldbut the Wildhammers were much changed by the horrors they witnessed at Grim Batol.

They took to living above ground on the slopes of Aerie Peak, instead of carving a vast

kingdom within the mountain. cheap wow goldThe

ideological differences between the two remaining dwarven clans eventually led to their

parting of ways.cheap wow gold

History of Warcraft:Aegwynn and the Dragon Hunt

As the politics and rivalries of the seven human nations waxed and waned, the line of

Guardians kept its constant vigil against chaos. World of

Warcraft GoldThere were many Guardians over the years, but only one ever held the

magical powers of Tirisfal at any given time. World of

Warcraft GoldOne of the last Guardians of the age distinguished herself as a mighty

warrior against the shadow. Aegwynn, World of Warcraft

Golda fiery human girl, won the approbation of the Order and was given the mantle of

Guardianship. World of Warcraft GoldAegwynn vigorously

worked to hunt down and eradicate demons wherever she found them, but she often questioned

the authority of the male-dominated Council of Tirisfal. wow

goldShe believed that the ancient elves and the elderly men who presided over the

council were too rigid in their thinking and not farsighted enough to put a decisive end to

the conflict against chaos. wow goldImpatient with

lengthy discussion and debate, wow goldshe yearned to

prove herself worthy to her peers and superiors, buy wow

goldand as a result frequently chose valor over wisdom in crucial situations.

As her mastery over the cosmic power of Tirisfal grew, World

of Warcraft GoldAegwynn became aware of a number of powerful demons that stalked the icy

northern continent of Northrend. World of Warcraft

GoldTraveling to the distant north, Aegwynn tracked the demons into the mountains.

There, World of Warcraft Goldshe found that the demons

were hunting one of the last surviving dragonflights and draining the ancient creatures of

their innate magic. World of Warcraft GoldThe mighty

dragons, wow goldwho had fled from the ever-advancing

march of mortal societies, found themselves too evenly matched against the dark magics of

the Legion. wow goldAegwynn confronted the demons, and

with help from the noble dragons, eradicated them. Yet, as the last demon was banished from

the mortal world, wow golda great storm erupted

throughout the north. buy wow goldAn enormous dark

visage appeared in the sky above Northrend. buy wow

goldSargeras, the demon king and lord of the Burning Legion, appeared before Aegwynn and

bristled with hellish energy. buy wow goldHe informed

the young Guardian that the time of Tirisfal was about to come to an end and that the world

would soon bow before the onslaught of the Legion. cheap wow

gold

The proud Aegwynn, World of Warcraft Goldbelieving

herself to be a match for the menacing god, unleashed her powers against Sargeras' avatar.

With disconcerting ease, Aegwynn battered the demonlord with her powers and succeeded in

killing his physical shell. World of Warcraft

GoldFearing that Sargeras' spirit would linger on, wow

goldthe naive Aegwynn locked the ruined husk of his body within one of the ancient halls

of Kalimdor that had been blasted to the bottom of the sea when the Well of Eternity

collapsed. wow goldAegwynn would never know that she had

done exactly as Sargeras had planned. She had inadvertently sealed the fate of the mortal

world, World of Warcraft Goldfor Sargeras, at the time

of his corporeal death, buy wow goldhad transferred his

spirit into Aegwynn's weakened body. buy wow

goldUnbeknownst to the young Guardian, buy wow

goldSargeras would remain cloaked within the darkest recesses of her soul for many long

History of Warcraft:The Seven Kingdoms

Strom continued to act as the central hub of Arathor, cheap

wow goldbut as with Dalaran, cheap wow goldmany new

city-states arose across the continent of Lordaeron. cheap

wow goldGilneas, Alterac, wow goldand Kul Tiras were

the first city-states to arise, wow goldand although

they each had their own customs and commercial workings, they all held to the unifying

authority of Strom. buy wow gold

Under the vigilant watch of the Order of Tirisfal, cheap wow

goldDalaran became the chief center of learning for magicians throughout the land. The

Magocrats who ruled Dalaran founded the Kirin Tor, wow

golda specialized sect that was charged with cataloguing and researching every spell,

artifact, cheap wow goldand magic item known to mankind

at the time. buy wow gold

Gilneas and Alterac became strong supporters of Strom and developed mighty armies that

explored the mountainous southern lands of Khaz Modan. cheap

wow goldIt was during this period that humans first met the ancient race of dwarves and

traveled to cheap wow goldtheir cavernous subterranean

city of Ironforge. The humans and dwarves shared many secrets of metal-smithing and

engineering and discovered a common love for battle and storytelling.

The city-state of Kul Tiras, cheap wow goldfounded upon

a large island south of Lordaeron, developed a prosperous economy based on fishing and

shipping. Over time, cheap wow goldKul Tiras built up a

mighty fleet of merchant vessels that sailed throughout the known lands in search of exotic

goods to trade and sell. cheap wow goldYet even as the

economy of Arathor flourished, its strongest elements began to disintegrate.

In time, the lords of Strom sought to move their estates to the lush northlands of Lordaeron

and leave the arid lands of the south. cheap wow goldThe

heirs of King Thoradin, cheap wow goldthe last

descendants of the Arathi bloodline, argued that Strom should not be abandoned and thus

incurred the displeasure of the greater citizenry, who were likewise eager to leave. The

lords of Strom, cheap wow goldseeking to find purity and

enlightenment in the untamed north, decided to leave their ancient city behind. Far to the

north of Dalaran, cheap wow goldthe lords of Strom built

a new city-state which they named Lordaeron. The entire continent would take its name from

this city-state. cheap wow goldLordaeron became a mecca

for religious travelers buy wow goldand all those who

sought inner peace and security.

The descendents of the Arathi, cheap wow goldleft within

the crumbling walls of ancient Strom, decided to travel south past the rocky mountains of

Khaz Modan. cheap wow goldTheir journey finally ended

after many long seasons, cheap wow goldand they settled

in the northern region of the continent they would name Azeroth. In a fertile valley they

founded the kingdom of Stormwind, cheap wow goldwhich

quickly became a buy wow goldself-sufficient power in

its own right.

The few warriors still left in Strom decided to remain and guard the ancient walls of their

city. Strom was no longer the center of the empire, but it developed into a new nation known

as Stromgarde. cheap wow goldThough each of the city-

states became prosperous in its own right, the empire of Arathor had effectively

disintegrated. cheap wow goldAs each nation developed

its own customs and beliefs, cheap wow goldthey became

increasingly segregated from one another. wow goldKing

Thoradin's vision of a buy wow goldunified humanity had

faded at last.

History of Warcraft:Ironforge - the Awakening of the Dwarves

In the ancient times, cheap wow goldafter the Titans departed Azeroth, their children, known as the earthen, continued to shape and guard the deep recesses of the world. cheap wow goldThe earthen were largely unconcerned with the affairs of the surface-dwelling races and longed only to plumb the dark depths of the earth. buy wow gold

When the world was sundered by the Well of Eternity's implosion, the earthen were deeply affected. Reeling with the pain of the earth itself, cheap wow goldthe earthen lost much of their identity and sealed themselves within the stone chambers where they were first created. buy wow goldUldaman, Uldum, Ulduar... these were the names of the ancient Titan cities where the earthen first took shape and form. Buried deep beneath the world, the earthen rested in peace for nearly eight thousand years. buy wow gold

Though it is unclear what awakened them, cheap wow goldthe earthen sealed within Uldaman eventually arose from their self-imposed slumber. cheap wow goldThese earthen found that they had changed significantly during their hibernation. Their rocky hides had softened and become smooth skin, buy wow goldand their powers over stone and earth had waned. They had become mortal creatures. buy wow gold

Calling themselves dwarves, cheap wow goldthe last of the earthen left the halls of Uldaman and ventured out into the waking world. Still lulled by the safety and wonders of the deep places, buy wow goldthey founded a vast kingdom under the highest mountain in the land. They named their land Khaz Modan, buy wow goldor "Mountain of Khaz", in honor of the Titan shaper, Khaz'goroth. wow goldConstructing an altar for their Titan father, wow goldthe dwarves crafted a mighty forge within the heart of the mountain. Thus, the city that grew around the forge would be called Ironforge ever after.
The dwarves, wow goldby nature fascinated with shaping gems and stone, buy wow goldset out to mine the surrounding mountains for riches and precious minerals. Content with their labors under the world, wow goldthe dwarves remained isolated from the affairs of their surface-dwelling neighbors. cheap wow gold

History of Warcraft:The Guardians of Tirisfal

With the absence of trolls in the northlands, cheap wow

goldthe elves of Quel'Thalas bent their efforts towards rebuilding their glorious

homeland. cheap wow goldThe victorious armies of Arathor

returned home to southlands of Strom. cheap wow goldThe

human society of Arathor grew and prospered, cheap wow

goldyet Thoradin, buy wow goldfearful that his

kingdom would splinter apart if it overextended itself, maintained that Strom was the center

of the Arathorian empire. wow goldAfter many peaceful

years of growth and commerce, wow goldmighty Thoradin

died of old age, leaving Arathor's younger generation free to expand the empire beyond the

lands of Strom. buy wow gold

The original hundred magi, cheap wow goldwho were

tutored in the ways of magic by the elves, cheap wow

goldexpanded their powers and studied the mystic disciplines of spell-weaving in much

greater detail. These magi, cheap wow goldinitially

chosen for their strong wills and noble spirits, cheap wow

goldhad always practiced their magic with care and responsibility; however, they passed

their secrets and powers onto a newer generation that had no concept of the rigors of war or

the necessity for self-restraint. buy wow goldThese

younger magicians began to practice magic for personal gain rather than out of any

responsibility towards their fellows. buy wow gold

As the empire grew and expanded into new lands, cheap wow

goldthe young magicians also spread out into the southlands.Wielding their mystical

powers, cheap wow goldthe magicians protected their

brethren from the wild creatures of the land and made it possible for new city-states to be

constructed in the wilderness. buy wow goldYet, as

their powers grew, the magicians became ever more conceited and isolated from the rest of

society. buy wow gold

The second Arathorian city-state of Dalaran was founded in the lands north of Strom. Many

fledgling wizards left the restraining confines of Strom behind and traveled to Dalaran,

where they hoped to use their new powers with greater freedom. These magicians used their

skills to build up the enchanted spires of Dalaran and reveled in the pursuit of their

studies. cheap wow goldThe citizens of Dalaran tolerated

the magicians' endeavors and built up a bustling economy under the protection of their

magic-using defenders. Yet, as more and more magicians practiced their arts, the fabric of

reality around Dalaran began to weaken and tear.

The sinister agents of the Burning Legion, cheap wow

goldwho had been banished when the Well of Eternity collapsed, were lured back into the

world by the heedless spellcasting of the magicians of Dalaran. Though these relatively weak

demons did not appear in force, cheap wow goldthey did

sow considerable confusion and chaos within the streets of Dalaran. Most of these demonic

encounters were isolated events, buy wow goldand the

ruling Magocrats did what they could to keep such events hidden from the public.
href="http://www.wowatm.com"> buy wow goldThe most powerful magicians were sent to

capture the elusive demons, but they often found themselves hopelessly outmatched by the

lone agents of the mighty Legion.

After a few months the superstitious peasantry began to suspect that their sorcerous rulers

were hiding something terrible from them. cheap wow

goldRumors of revolution began to sweep through the streets of Dalaran as the paranoid

citizenry questioned the motives and practices of the magicians they had once admired.
href="http://www.wowatm.com">cheap wow goldThe Magocrats, fearing that the peasants

would revolt and that Strom would take action against them, turned to the only group they

felt would understand their particular problem: the elves.

buy wow gold

Upon hearing the Magocrats' news of demonic activity in Dalaran, the elves quickly

dispatched their mightiest wizards to the human lands. buy

wow goldThe elven wizards studied the energy currents in Dalaran and made detailed

reports of all demonic activity that they beheld. They concluded that although there were

only a few demons loose in the world, the Legion itself would remain a dire threat so long

as humans continued to wield the forces of magic.

The Council of Silvermoon, cheap wow goldwhich ruled

over the elves of Quel'Thalas, entered into a secret pact with the Magocrat lords of

Dalaran. cheap wow goldThe elves told the Magocrats

about the history of ancient Kalimdor and of the Burning Legion, a history which still

threatened the world. They informed the humans that so long as they used magic, they would

need to protect their citizenry from the malicious agents of the Legion. The Magocrats

proposed the notion of empowering a single mortal champion who would utilize their

collective powers in order to fight a never-ending secret war against the Legion.
href="http://www.wowatm.com">wow goldIt was stressed that the majority of mankind could

never know about the Guardians or the threat of the Legion for fear that they would riot in

fear and paranoia. wow goldThe elves agreed to the

proposal and founded a secret society that would watch over the selection of the Guardian

and help to stem the rise of chaos in the world.

The society held its secret meetings in the shadowed Tirisfal Glades, where the high elves

had first settled in Lordaeron. Thus, cheap wow goldthey

named the secret sect the Guardians of Tirisfal. The mortal champions who were chosen to be

Guardians were imbued with incredible powers of both elven and human magic. Though there

would only ever be one Guardian at a time, they held such vast power that they could single

-handedly fight back the Legion's agents wherever they were found in the world. The Guardian

power was so great that only the Council of Tirisfal was allowed to choose potential

successors to the mantle of Guardianship. Whenever a Guardian grew too old, or wearied of

the secret war against chaos, the Council chose a new champion, and under controlled

conditions, wow goldformally channeled the Guardian

power into its new agent. wow gold

As the generations passed, cheap wow goldGuardians

defended the masses of humanity from the invisible threat of the Burning Legion throughout

the lands of Arathor and Quel'Thalas. Arathor grew and prospered while the use of magic

spread throughout the empire. Meanwhile, the Guardians kept careful watch for signs of

demonic activity. buy wow gold

History of Warcraft:Arathor and the Troll Wars

As the high elves fought for their lives against the trolls' fierce onslaught, the scattered, nomadic humans of Lordaeron

fought to consolidate their own tribal lands. cheap wow

goldThe tribes of early humanity raided each other's settlements with little heed for

racial unification or honor. wow goldYet one tribe,

known as the Arathi, wow goldsaw that the trolls were

becoming too great a threat to ignore. wow goldThe

Arathi wished to bring all of the tribes under its rule so that they could provide a unified

front against the troll warbands. buy wow gold

Over the course of six years, cheap wow goldthe cunning

Arathi outmaneuvered and outfought the rival tribes. cheap

wow goldAfter every victory,cheap wow gold the

Arathi offered peace and equality to the conquered people; thus, they won the loyalty of

those they had beaten. cheap wow goldEventually the

Arathi tribe came to include many disparate tribes, wow

goldand the ranks of its army grew vast. buy wow

goldConfident that they could hold their own against the troll warbands or even the

reclusive elves if need be, buy wow goldthe Arathi

warlords decided to construct a mighty fortress city in the southern regions of Lordaeron.

The city-state, wow goldnamed Strom, became the capital

of the Arathi nation, Arathor. As Arathor prospered, humans from all over the vast continent

traveled south to the protection and safety of Strom. buy

wow gold

United under one banner, cheap wow goldthe human tribes

developed a strong, cheap wow goldoptimistic culture.

Thoradin, cheap wow goldthe king of Arathor, knew that

the mysterious elves in the northlands were under constant siege by the trolls, but refused

to risk the safety of his people in defense of reclusive strangers. Many months passed as

rumors of the elves' supposed defeat trickled down from the north. It was only when weary

ambassadors from Quel'Thalas reached Strom that Thoradin realized how great the troll threat

truly was. buy wow gold

The elves informed Thoradin that the troll armies were vast and that once the trolls had

destroyed Quel'Thalas, cheap wow goldthey would move on

to attack the southlands. cheap wow goldThe desperate

elves, buy wow goldin dire need of military aid,

hastily agreed to teach certain select humans to wield magic in exchange for their help

against the warbands. cheap wow goldThoradin, distrustful of any magic, agreed to aid the elves

out of necessity. wow goldAlmost immediately, elven

sorcerers arrived in Arathor and began to instruct a group of humans in the ways of magicThe elves found that although humans were innately clumsy in their handling of magic, they

possessed a startling natural affinity for it. cheap wow

goldOne hundred men were taught the very basics of the elves' magical secrets: no more than was absolutely necessary to

combat the trolls. wow goldConvinced that their human

students were ready to aid in the struggle, wow goldthe

elves left Strom and traveled north alongside the mighty armies of King Thoradin.

The united elf and human armies clashed against the overwhelming troll warbands at the foot

of the Alterac Mountains. cheap wow goldThe battle

lasted for many days, cheap wow goldbut the unflagging

armies of Arathor never tired or gave an inch of ground before the troll onslaught. The

elven lords deemed that the time had come to release the powers of their magic upon the

enemy. cheap wow goldThe hundred human magi and a

multitude of elven sorcerers called down the fury of the heavens and set the troll armies

ablaze. wow goldThe elemental fires prevented the trolls

from regenerating their wounds and burned their tortured forms from the inside out.

As the troll armies broke and attempted to flee, cheap wow

goldThoradin's armies ran them down and slaughtered every last one of their soldiers.

The trolls would never fully recover from their defeat, and history would never see the

trolls rise as one nation again. cheap wow goldAssured

that Quel'Thalas was saved from destruction, cheap wow

goldthe elves made a pledge of loyalty and friendship to the nation of Arathor and to

the bloodline of its king, buy wow goldThoradin. Humans

and elves would nurture peaceful relations for ages to come.

History of Warcraft:The Founding of Quel'Thalas

The high elves, cheap wow goldled by Dath'Remar,

storms of the Maelstrom. Their fleets wandered the wreckage of the world for many long

years, cheap wow goldand they discovered mysteries and

goldDath'Remar, who had taken the name Sunstrider (or "he who walks the day"), sought

out places of considerable ley power upon which to build a new homeland for his people.

His fleet finally landed on the beaches of the kingdom men would later call Lordaeron.

Forging inland, cheap wow goldthe high elves founded a

settlement within the tranquil Tirisfal Glades. cheap wow

goldAfter a few years, cheap wow goldmany of them

began to go mad. wow goldIt was theorized that something

evil slept beneath that particular part of the world, but the rumors were never proven to be

true. wow goldThe high elves packed up their encampment

and moved northward towards another land rich with ley energies.
As the high elves crossed the rugged, cheap wow

goldmountainous lands of Lordaeron, their journey became more perilous. Since they were

effectively cut off from the life-giving energies of the Well of Eternity, many of them fell

ill from the frigid climate or died from starvation. cheap

wow goldThe most disconcerting change, however, buy wow

goldwas the fact that they were no longer immortal or immune to the elements. They also

shrank somewhat in height, cheap wow goldand their skin

lost its characteristic violet hue. wow goldDespite

their hardships, they encountered many wondrous creatures that had never been seen in

Kalimdor. They also found tribes of primitive humans who hunted throughout the ancient

forestlands. However, the direst threat they encountered were the voracious and cunning

forest trolls of Zul'Aman. buy wow gold

These moss-skinned trolls could regenerate lost limbs and heal grievous physical injuries,

but they proved to be a barbaric, wow goldevil race.
href="http://www.wowatm.com">cheap wow goldThe Amani empire stretched across most of

northern Lordaeron, wow goldand the trolls fought hard

to keep unwanted strangers from their borders. cheap wow

goldThe elves developed a deep loathing for the vicious trolls and killed them on sight

whenever they were encountered. buy wow gold

After many long years, cheap wow goldthe high elves

finally found a land which was reminiscent of Kalimdor. Deep within the northern forests of

the continent, cheap wow goldthey founded the kingdom of

Quel'Thalas and vowed to create a mighty empire which would dwarf that of their Kaldorei

cousins. cheap wow goldUnfortunately they soon learned

that Quel'Thalas was founded upon an ancient troll city that the trolls still held to be

sacred. Almost immediately, the trolls began to attack the elven settlements en masse.

The stubborn elves, cheap wow goldunwilling to give up

their new land, utilized the magics which they had gleaned from the Well of Eternity and

kept the savage trolls at bay. cheap wow goldUnder

Dath'Remar's leadership, buy wow goldthey were able to

defeat the Amani warbands that outnumbered them ten to one. Some elves, wary of the

Kaldorei's ancient warnings, wow goldfelt that their use

of magic might possibly draw the attention of the banished Burning Legion. Therefore, they

decided to mask their lands within a protective barrier which would still allow them to work

their enchantments. wow goldThey constructed a series of

monolithic Runestones at various points around Quel'Thalas which marked the boundaries of

the magic barrier. wow goldThe Runestones not only

masked the elves' magic from extra-dimensional threats, but helped to frighten away the

superstitious troll warbands as well. buy wow gold

As time wore on, cheap wow goldQuel'Thalas became a

shining monument to the high elves' efforts and magical prowess. Its beauteous palaces were

crafted in the same architectural style as the ancient halls of Kalimdor, yet they were

interwoven with the natural topography of the land. Quel'Thalas had become the shining jewel

that the elves had longed to create. cheap wow goldThe

Convocation of Silvermoon was founded as the ruling power over Quel'Thalas, though the

Sunstrider Dynasty maintained a modicum of political power. Comprised of seven of the

greatest high elf lords, wow goldthe Convocation worked

to secure the safety of the elven lands and people. buy wow

goldSurrounded by their protective barrier, buy wow

goldthe high elves remained unmoved by the old warnings of the Kaldorei and continued to

use magic flagrantly in almost all aspects of their lives.

There were many Highborne who did survive the cataclysm unscathed. cheap wow goldThey made their way to the shores of the new land along with the other night elves. cheap wow goldThough Malfurion mistrusted the Highborne's motivations, cheap wow goldhe was satisfied that they could cause no real mischief without the Well's energies. wow gold

As the weary mass of night elves landed upon the shores of the new land, cheap wow goldthey found that the holy mountain, Hyjal, had survived the catastrophe. buy wow goldSeeking to establish a new home for themselves, Malfurion and the night elves climbed the slopes of Hyjal and reached its windswept summit.

Illidan, having survived the Sundering as well, buy wow goldhad reached Hyjal summit long before Malfurion and the night elves. cheap wow goldIn his mad bid to maintain the flows of magic in the world, Illidan had poured his vials, which contained the precious waters from the Well of Eternity, into the mountain lake. cheap wow goldThe Well's potent energies quickly ignited and coalesced into a new Well of Eternity. cheap wow goldThe exultant Illidan, believing that the new Well was a gift to future generations, was shocked when Malfurion hunted him down. cheap wow goldMalfurion explained to his brother that magic was innately chaotic and that its use would inevitably lead to widespread corruption and strife.

History of Warcraft:The Waking World and the Well of Eternity

Ten thousand years before the orcs and humans clashed in their First War, the world of Azeroth cradled only one massive continent, surrounded by the sea. That landmass, known as Kalimdor, was home to a number of disparate races and creatures, all vying for survival amongst the savage elements of the waking world. At the dark continent's center was a mysterious lake of incandescent energies. www.wowatm.comThe lake, which would later be called the Well of Eternity, was the true heart of the world's magic and natural power. Drawing its energies from the infinite Great Dark beyond the world, the Well acted as a mystical fount, sending its potent energies out across the world to nourish life in all its wondrous forms. www.wowatm.com
In time, a primitive tribe of nocturnal humanoids cautiously made their way to the edges of the mesmerizing enchanted lake. The feral, nomadic humanoids, drawn by the Well's strange energies, built crude homes upon its tranquil shores. Over time, the Well's cosmic power affected the tribe, making them strong, wise, and virtually immortal. The tribe adopted the name Kaldorei, which meant "children of the stars" in their native tongue. To celebrate their budding society, they constructed great structures and temples around the lake's periphery. www.wowatm.com
The Kaldorei, or night elves as they would later be known, worshipped the moon goddess, Elune, and believed that she slept within the Well's shimmering depths during the daylight hours.www.wowatm.com The early night elf priests and seers studied the Well with an insatiable curiosity, driven to plumb its untold secrets and power. As their society grew, the night elves explored the breadth of Kalimdor and encountered its other denizens. The only creatures that gave them pause were the ancient and powerful dragons. The great serpentine beasts were often reclusive, but they did much to safeguard the known lands from potential threats. The night elves discovered that the dragons held themselves to be the protectors of the world - and agreed that they and their secrets were best left alone. www.wowatm.com
In time, the night elves' curiosity led them to meet and befriend a number of powerful entities, not the least of which was Cenarius, a mighty demigod of the primordial forestlands. The greathearted Cenarius grew fond of the inquisitive night elves and spent a great deal of time teaching them about the natural world. The tranquil Kaldorei developed a strong empathy for the living forests of Kalimdor and reveled in the harmonious balance of nature. www.wowatm.com
As the seemingly endless ages passed, the night elves' civilization expanded both territorially and culturally. Their temples, roads, and dwelling places stretched across the breadth of the dark continent. Azshara, the night elves' beautiful and gifted queen, built an immense, www.wowatm.comwondrous palace on the Well's shore that housed her favored servitors within its bejeweled halls. Her servitors, whom she called the Quel'dorei or "Highborne", doted on her every command and believed themselves to be greater than the rest of their brethren. Though Queen Azshara was loved equally by all of her people, the Highborne were secretly envied and disliked by the rest of the night elves. www.wowatm.com
Sharing the priests' curiosity towards the Well of Eternity, Azshara ordered the Highborne to plumb its secrets and reveal its true purpose in the world. The Highborne buried themselves in their work and studied the Well ceaselessly. In time they developed the ability to manipulate and control the Well's cosmic energies. As their experiments progressed, the Highborne found that they could use their newfound powers to either create or destroy at their leisure.www.wowatm.com The heedless Highborne had stumbled upon primitive magic and were now resolved to devote themselves to its mastery. Although they agreed that magic was inherently dangerous if handled irresponsibly, Azshara and her Highborne began to practice their spellcraft with reckless abandon. www.wowatm.comwww.wowatm.comCenarius and many wizened night elf scholars warned that only calamity would result from toying with the clearly volatile arts of magic. Even so, Azshara and her followers stubbornly continued to expand their burgeoning powers.
