Years after the fall of the Orcish Horde to the human Alliance of Lordaeron, the remaining humans and orcs find themselves facing a common enemy: the demons of the Burning Legion and their armies of undead monsters.

Long ago, the Orcish Horde fell to the Alliance of Lorderon after a series of climactic battles. With most of the Horde locked away in internment camps, peace has at last prevailed. In the hut of the Orcish leader Thrall, a mysterious prophet tells Thrall that the only hope for his people lies on the island of Kalimdor. Both the Prophet and Thrall know why: the Demons are returning.—Chris

The Alliance, pagan night elves, and divided Horde are waging war against each other once more. Separated by appearance, religion and culture, old hatreds bring these forces against one another. Meanwhile, the undead are spreading throughout the world, yet nobody knows why. In an untimely turn of events, a vast, demonic army of Hell-spawned demon warriors, the Burning Legion, have returned to destroy the land of Azeroth after having been banished for 10,000 years. Only by looking past their ancient hatreds for each other and standing together against true evil can the citizens of the world defeat the Burning Legion.—Flotis

The Alliance was finally victorious over the Orcish Horde, driving them back to their magical world rift, and ultimately sealing it, sending the remainder of the Orcs to internment camps. But the cost was heavy, and the Alliance began to splinter under the weight of it's own prejudice. Many years after the victory, the Prince of Lordaeron, a paladin under the service of Uther Lightbringer, and Thrall, the new war chief of the Horde receive a visit from a mysterious prophet, foretelling great danger to any who do not flee across the Great Sea to the west. Although Thrall heeds the advice, the Prince does not. An undead army is rising. Lordaeron is falling. And tales of a powerful evil, the Burning Legion, are spreading. What future lies in store for the world of Azeroth? Will this once peaceful land ever know peace again?—Anonymous
