"The Horde is nothing!"
With those infamous words, Sylvanas Windrunner betrayed and abandoned the Horde she vowed to serve. The Dark Lady and her forces now work in the shadows as both the Horde and Alliance race to uncover her next move. Struggling to shoulder the crushing weight of leadership, King Anduin entrusts Alleria Windrunner and High Exarch Turalyon to discover Sylvanas’s whereabouts. Meanwhile, the Dark Lady has tasked Nathanos Blightcaller and Sira Moonwarden with a terrifying gambit: to kill the troll loa of death himself, Bwonsamdi.
The Horde now stands at a crossroads. The various factions form a council, leaving the mantle of warchief to rest. But the threats are numerous, and the distrust runs too deep. When the council is derailed by a failed assassination attempt on Talanji—the Zandalari queen and a key ally—Thrall and the rest of the Horde leaders empower the young troll shaman Zekhan with a critical mission to aid Talanji in thwarting the rising threat against her.
As Zekhan and Talanji work to save Bwonsamdi, their journey will be a key turning point in bolstering the Horde against the coming darkness and finding themselves along the way. Failure to save their allies and the trickster god will surely doom them—but through success, they may rediscover what makes the Horde strong.
