Naxxramas - Heroic Endeavors

An ancient Nerubian ziggurat, Naxxramas was torn free from the ground by agents of the Lich King to serve as Kel’Thuzad’s base of operations as he spreads the plague throughout Lordaeron.

Other sources say Obrahiim the Traveler – a great skeletal architect – was pivotal in the conception of Naxxramas, hinting that it was altered or retooled.

Fighting a war against the Scarlet Crusade, the Argent Dawn, the Forsaken and the Alliance, as well as constant incursions of adventurers from every race and nation into the Scourge-controlled Plaguelands on a daily basis, the forces of Kel’Thuzad are severely taxed to maintain the security of his necropolis.

The gates of Naxxramas are open, and as Kel’Thuzad’s forces assault Wintergarde Keep, they leave their defenses exposed.

 


 


The Battle for Sentinel Hill, the Rise of the Fearless

After two years of infrequent encounters and short, violent battles, Horde forces loyal to Biroz, calling themselves the “Fearless,” invaded and occupied the tower at Sentinel Hill.

After a pitched battle lasting hours, fully two score of combatants on either side had traded control of the upper levels of the tower three times, and the Fearless earned their name by descending the steps with their banners high, saluting the defenders before leaving peacefully.

To all impressions, the battle – which had drawn no serious casualties – had been an exercise for some, and a friendly brawl for others.  A lasting spirit of competition would continue between the houses Thalanaar and Fearless, with guild leader of Thalanaar often referring to Biroz as an honored friend, and the finest example of justified pride that the Horde has ever brought to the field of battle.
