History of Azeroth

The Alliance gained a momentous victory against the Horde at the battle of Blackrock Spire. General Turalyon, the newly active leading Alliance Commander after the death of Anduin Lothar, pushed a retaliation against the remnants of the Horde armies. Orcs that were not slain were driven back through the Dark Portal or rounded into Internment camps. Afterward, the Dark Portal was destroyed.   The orc Shaman, Ner'zhul, would once against try to invade Azeroth by recreating the rift between Azeroth and Draenor. Unfortunately for the Horde, the Alliance was ready to fight back and invade in turn. Calling themselves the Sons of Lothar, the Alliance forces fought against the Horde until ultimately, the Dark Portal was once again destroyed, rupturing the entire planet of Draenor and leaving remains of floating and desolated landmasses, now referred to as the Outlands.

Ner'zhul, once thought dead after the destruction of Draenor, instead became a being of both the supernatural and accursed, becoming The Lich King and started to plant the seeds of his and the Burning Legions return, creating a plague of undeath that spread through the Kingdom of Lordaeron, raising those killed as undead under his eternal service.   Princess Calia Menethil, Paladin of the Silver Hand and daughter to King Terenas Menethil ll, fell to corruption after the destruction of her home and her belief in protecting her people at all cost. Taking up the cursed blade Frostmourne, she took revenge against those who had spread the plague. But the blade had corrupted her further, driving her into the service of the Lich King itself. Calia murdered Terenas, defiled the Sunwell of Quel'thalas, and summoned Archimonde, a demon lord of the Burning Legion and left hand of Sargeras who would then go on to destroy Dalaran, the city of Magi.   The survivors of each travesty fled across the sea to the mostly unexplored continent of Kalimdor - the Alliance led by Jaden Proudmoore, and the Horde by Warchief Thrall.

With The Infinite Attacks causing catastrophic damage across the widespread of Azeroth, the structure of the Alliance was beginning to show cracks. Ironforge had been heavily damaged, losing a third of it's city interior. Gilneas was laid abandoned due to plague from previous attacks by the Horde, and Stormwind was in a state of repairs and spread thing trying to provide for refugees. The Draenei sent as much help as they could spare across the cast seas, but the Night Elves of Darnassus remained silent all through-out.

As the fighting between dragons, who either had gone insane or fight for self-preservation, and Dragon-Slayers continued, Alextrasza, the Red Dragon Aspect, tried to broker peace with the mortal races in order to discuss an agreement to stop attacks and steer towards a resolution Unfortunately, this peace would not come to be as Alexsrasza's mate, Korialstrasz, was slain by the Guild Master of the Dragon-Slayer's guild, thus dubbing them The Red Wyrm.   It is said that the queen's consort's remains were so mangled that Alexstrasza wailed in anguish all through the night and the following morning, no longer wishing for peace. After seeing her kin be enslaved, slaughtered, and manipulated by the mortals all throughout Azeroth's history of bloody wars, and seeing her love brutally mutilated: Alexstrasza openly calls for war against the Dragon-Slayers.
