Also known as "Southern Elwynn Forest", the region was the location of two sizable towns called Grand Hamlet and Raven Hill. Over the years, it found prosperity through the farmsteads that dotted the surrounding fertile region, and as its population grew, small towns sprang up in the nearby regions, notably in Brightwood. Before the First WarĬenturies ago, throughout the Eastern Kingdoms, the disparate human nations flourished, among them the smallest and most isolated of the kingdoms was Stormwind. The branch quickly took root, and became a new tree all its own, acting as a conduit and channeling the powers of the Emerald Dream into the waking world, strengthening the nearby wildlife and scouring the saronite deposits. With the branches in hand, they traveled the world to locations where saronite blooms had sprung to life, including a remote region of the Eastern Kingdoms that would later be known as Duskwood. To fight against all these threats, the militia of Duskwood, known as the Night Watch, patrolled the main thoroughfare and protected Darkshire, wary of anything moving through the shadows.Ĥ,500 years before the Dark Portal, Fandral and his followers secretly cut six enchanted branches from the boughs of Nordrassil. Ogres moving in have brought up even more problems. On all sides lurk dangerous creatures, from hideous undead to ferocious Nightbane worgen and overgrown spiders.
