"The Sunfury are an elite organization of Sinâdorei soldiers, widely recognized as one of the most accomplished fighting forces in QuelâThalas. Formed by Prince Kaelâthas Sunstrider as he set out on his mission to rebuild following the destruction of QuelâThalas in the Third War, the Sunfury were Kaelâs personal bodyguard and military force. Highly skilled in magic and warfare, loyal to the crown, and dedicated to their princeâs plan to rebuild the kingdom of Quelâthalas.
The Sunfury refused to follow their prince into madness when he betrayed the Sinâdorei people to the Burning Legion. They instead defected from the forces in Outland, returned to their homeland, and fought against him with the Shattered Sun Offensive to prevent the Sunwell from being defiled a second time. The Sunfury endured some of the heaviest losses in the battle, as those who had so fervently defended their Prince, now even more fiercely fought to protect the Sinâdorei from a second genocide.
After the final defeat and death of their Prince, these noble warriors became soldiers without a commander. Their return to Quelâthalas received mixed responses from their people, some seeing them as co-conspirators to the Prince, others seeing them as heroes who had to make the hardest choices.
With the armies of QuelâThalas severely depleted in the aftermath of the civil war, and seeking to give new purpose to these honorable soldiers, Lady Shalanori of House Sunshadow, made a proposal to Lorâthemar.
The Sunfury would be called upon to renew their oaths to protect and defend the people of Quelâthalas, to form a new Battalion that would stand as sentinels against any threat from outside or within, called upon in darkest hours to succeed.
Bathed in the warm light of the bridge outside Sunfury Spire, flanked by Lorâthemar on her right, Lady Shalanori addressed the gathered group of warriors:
âYou have given much, and now more is being asked. Keep watch over our nation while we rebuild. Protect our families. Let our people once again secure this land and bring peace to the children of the blood, who have endured so much. We are grateful for your sacrifices, and I implore you to again renew your oath to Quelâthalas, to Silvermoon, and to the Sinâdorei.â
âYou will be the shield that guards the realm of the sun. The light that pierces the darkness. A sword, bathed in blood. Swear today this sacred oath that can never be broken: To protect the Sinâdorei, to pursue the enemies of Quelâthalas, to preserve the honor and tradition of the Sunfury.â
"You are the Sunfury, and now your watch begins!"
