Stormwind City is the greatest and last bastion of human power in the Eastern Kingdoms and lies in the serene and stunning Elwynn Forest. Rebuilt several years ago by the Mason’s Guild, Stormwind stands proud as a challenge to the enemies of humanity; a constant reminder to them that the human spirit is not so easily crushed.

The main road into to the city, the Valley of Heroes, is flanked on both sides by mighty and imposing statues of revered and missed heroes of the Alliance, inspiring hope in the citizens of Stormwind and their allies – Some believe that through the unblinking stone eyes of these figures the fallen heroes watch over and protect them, guiding the human kingdom to greater glory and honour.

To say that only 5 years had passed since the terrible Third War against the undead Scourge and the Burning Legion, the citizens of Stormwind enjoyed a relatively simple and peaceful life. The troubles of the kingdom were many, but most of these lay far beyond the walls of the city and thus far from the minds of its' inhabitants.

Farmers from Elwynn, Westfall and Lakeshire brought cartloads of produce from the outlying territories whilst foreign traders from Ironforge and, rarely, Darnassus plied their exotic wares. The streets were busy with the hustle and bustle of everyday life and the gentle hubbub of conversation provided a comforting backdrop for the visitor...

Few paid attention to the heavily built young man that stood at the great stone gates to the city. He spent a few minutes gazing up at the architecture and glancing around with interest at the comings and goings of the city.

Hitching up his backpack, Alexei Almarov, Knight of the Silver Hand took a deep breath of the familiar smelling air and grinned broadly.

It was good to be home.
