'''Aszune'''<!-- this is the correct spelling check your Warcraft III map editor -->, the [[night elf]] princess, long ago mocked the wisdom of the [[Medivh|Oracle]].

''Nothing is known about Aszune beyond the information revealed in the above missions of Warcraft III. Her title suggests she might be related to [[Queen Azshara]], but no information has been established. She makes no appearance in any document pertaining to the War of the Ancients, so whenever she was imprisoned, it was likely some time before the war, as no "princesses" or relations of Azshara would have gone undocumented afterwards. Though, there are a few obscure highborne princes in WoW.''
