A wild stranger sneakily comes out of nearest cupboard, in cluster of coalition provision crates and sacks. And whispered to you.
Don’t tell anyone. But, they got drunk, because one of their friends died while peeking Scourge building. Me think.
We have friends in the hands of the Scourge, we have recently lost a friend… but we will battle on! Tonight is the event!!
If you’d like to attend, make sure you have the Icecrown quests done due to phasing issues. Yay phasing! sarcastic

I got drunk because it was Spotify’s Wrapped Day, and I was scaring my cats by dancing around my apartment like the female lead in a “Just be yourself” Hallmark movie.
Anyways, yes! Tonight, you will need the first chapter of the Icecrown questline completed on whatever character you intend to bring. For next week, you will need to complete the entire questline. It’s 140 quests and 11 chapters. Each chapter takes, on average, about 30 minutes to complete, so expect 5-6 hours of work. Please, please get this done as soon as possible!

From the first, errant twitch of a corpse’s fingers amidst the mass graves strewn about Stormwind’s and Orgrimmar’s waterways, the Scourge have thrust the heroes ever deeper into hell each day without relent. Now, they stand in the glorious shadow of domination, the chill of the grave burrowed deep into their chests. Denied victory at every corner of Icecrown, the heroes steel themselves for a final, desperate bid to stop the Scourge before the Lich Queen rises to her full might.
With their allies blades turned against them and the full might of the undead legions bearing down on their every movement, can the heroes finally climb from this pit? And what will it ultimately cost them?
This week, final judgement will be rendered upon the wicked and pure alike. Join us at 4PM WrA/6PM MG on Saturday, December 11th for the grand finale, the final event, of Year of the Scourge.

Please note!
- We will be starting 1 hour early, at 4PM WRA.
- You must have completed [Icecrown: the Final Goal] to participate.
We will be starting one hour earlier than usual to accommodate finishing the event in a timely manner. Please be at the Argent Vanguard before 4PM WrA on the day of the battle. Latecomers are welcome!
As a reminder, you must have all eleven chapters of the Icecrown questline complete on the character you want to bring to participate in the finale on Saturday! This takes roughly 5 - 6 hours. You’ll be awarded the [Icecrown: The Final Goal] achievement upon completion.
If you have not completed these quests, it is highly likely that you will be phased during a portion of the event, as this phasing affects most of the non-instanced Citadel proper. We will not be designing alternatives for people who are phased. You will be unable to participate. We’ve all gone on this journey together, and we’re so excited to finish it with you. So, please finish it up if you haven’t already!
This is character-specific, not account-wide. So, you will need to do this on each character you wish to bring!

After months of trekking across the frozen wastes of Northrend, and an entire year of combatting the rising Scourge threat, the coalition of heroes march on the dread heart of undead power: Icecrown Citadel. There, they will battle Dread Commander Muaniir the Herobreaker and the lich Lady Damnedfate in a desperate attempt to stop the Scourge from binding Damnedfate’s crown to the Maw, augmenting it with the power of the original Helm of Domination. Should they fail, a Lich Queen will cast her darkness upon the world. Can they overcome the impossible? Can they restore light to the most wretched and vile crevice of Azeroth? Join Year of the Scourge in our grand finale!
This is starting one hour early! At 4PM WrA instead of 5PM.
Please message Beloran-WyrmrestAccord (Horde) or Vadinnar-WyrmrestAccord (Alliance), or look for YotS: Finale in the group finder for an invite!
As a reminder, due to phasing, players must have completed [Icecrown: The Final Goal] on the character they intend to bring. This is non-negotiable, as we have no alternative to the phasing problems, and they extend throughout the non-instanced Citadel proper. It takes 5-6 hours to complete the quests, so anyone who wishes to come has just a little more time to do them!

Axiann sat in his tent, alone, seated crossed-legged on his cot, elbows resting on his thighs, forearms and hands raised, fingertips touching as he contemplates and meditates. His eyes closed, he focuses on his breath and on clearing his mind.
“Clarity of mind… efficacy of spell.”
Fear would come easily. Courage would require work. This he knew from experience, from having fought in many battles, especially over the last year. Thus far he had survived. Others had not. And death was not even the worst fate which could befall him. He tried to clear this image, this possible future, out of his mind so as not to give it power. But it was difficult.
The Thalassian was roused from his meditation by the sound of bells, three of them, indicating there was one hour left before the troops would assemble and be briefed, one last time, one way or another.
His amber eyes opened, and he took a deep breath. Uncrossing his legs, he reached for the neatly folded pile by his cot, and began to don his uniform and armour, one leg, sleeve and shoulder plate at a time. He held and appreciated each piece before he slipped it on, admiring not only the stylish elven embroidery, but also the many layers of spell-work that imbued and enchanted the fabric. His magus-senses could send the power flowing through each thread, working to protect him, amplify his abilities while deflecting harmful energies directed at him.
As he picked up the last item, he beheld it longer than the others. This tabard meant the world to him. It represented not only the Archmage he served with his every fiber, but also the people he lead, in the Archmage’s name, and would protect to his last breath. He remembered their days together, working on some mystery or another. And their evenings together, laughing over wine or ale at the Lounge.
He slipped it on, hoping it would not be the last time. Hoping he, and they, would see home again.
“For the Sunreavers.”
