[[Category:World of Warcraft rare items]]
Garithos and his men were joined by [[Kael'thas Sunstrider|Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider]] and his healthiest warriors<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/encyclopedia/451.xml</ref> voluntarily, although they were met with suspicions by the prejudiced human Garithos. Garithos assigned the blood elves increasingly difficult missions,<ref name=encyclopediabloodelves>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/encyclopedia/338.xml</ref> he stationed them throughout [[Silverpine Forest]] and would have perished if not for the help of [[Tyrande]] and [[Maiev]].<ref>{{ref game|title=Warcraft III|expansion= [[The Frozen Throne]]|campaign=[[Terror of the Tides]]|mission=[[Shards of the Alliance]]}}</ref> They returned to [[Dalaran]] but were scolded by Garithos and ordered them to repair three [[Arcane Observatory|observatories]],<ref>{{ref game|title=Warcraft III|expansion= [[The Frozen Throne]]|campaign=[[Curse of the Blood Elves]]|mission=[[Misconceptions]]}}</ref> after the repairs Lord Garithos went to the front lines and left Kael'thas to await orders. The next day an [[emissary]] sent by Garithos withdraw the human and dwarven troops from Kael'thas control and send them to the fornt lines, then [[Dalvengyr]] and an undead army launched an attack to Kael'thas' bases. When the blood elves were going to be defeated, [[Lady Vashj]] and her [[Illidan's Naga|naga]] appeared and helped Kael'thas. The combined armies attacked the undeads and managed to kill [[Dalvengyr]], but later Garithos arrived and saw the naga, he condemned this action as treason and imprisioned the blood elves for excecuting them later.<ref>{{ref game|title=Warcraft III|expansion= [[The Frozen Throne]]|campaign=[[Curse of the Blood Elves]]|mission=[[A Dark Covenant]]}}</ref>
 
 
===Divided===
 
The New Alliance was divided into two groups: the human and dwarves loyal to Garithos and [[Kael'thas' forces]], the [[blood elves]] who were imprisoned.
 
 
Imprisoned and sentenced to death, the blood elves were rescued by Vashj. Kael'thas fought his way throughout the [[dungeons of Dalaran]], defeating the [[Garithos' Enforcers]] and to his former friend [[Kassan]]. The blood elves planned to reopen the portal opened by [[Kel'thuzad]] to bring [[Archimonde]] to [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] and redirect it to [[Outland]], where they would meet Illidan, however, they would need to keep Garithos at bay while his men crossed the portal.<ref name=encyclopediabloodelves/><ref>{{ref game|title=Warcraft III|expansion= [[The Frozen Throne]]|campaign=[[Curse of the Blood Elves]]|mission=[[The Dungeons of Dalaran]]}}</ref><ref>''[[Dark Factions]]'', p.119</ref> The portal was attacked by the [[Garithos' Elite Guard]] with the suicide mission of destroying it. Kael'thas, Vashj and some [[Blood Elf Engineer|engineers]] planned the defense and managed to hold Garithos.<ref>{{ref game|title=Warcraft III|expansion= [[The Frozen Throne]]|campaign=[[Curse of the Blood Elves]]|mission=[[The Crossing]]}}</ref>
 
 
===Mind-controlled===
 
Sometime after the blood elves escaped and Arthas left to defend the [[Lich King]] Garithos and his forces were bewitched by [[Detheroc]].<ref name=HPG150>''[[Horde Player's Guide]]'', pg. 150.</ref> The the New Alliance attacked the forces of [[Sylvanas]] and [[Varimathras]] along with Detheroc's undead but were pushed back and eventually freed from attacked Detheroc's enslavement.<ref name=undead5x/><ref name=HPG150/> Sylvanas then proposed an alliance with Garithos, at which he was offended by such an offer as Sylvanas had been part of the undead army that drove the humans out of Lordaeron in the first place. However, running out of military options, he assembled what was left of his forces and met Sylvanas outside of the base.<ref name=undead5x/>
 
 
===Annihilation===
 
The elves had left the New Alliance<ref name=encyclopediabloodelves/> and the [[Wildhammer clan|Wildhammer dwarves]] were annihilated,<ref>They are not in [[A New Power in Lordaeron]].</ref> with just humans and Bronzebeard dwarves left; yet the New Alliance persisted and went to the [[Capital City]].<ref name=undead6x/>
 
 
Sylvanas, Varimathras and Garithos planned to attack the [[Capital City]], they knew that [[Balnazzar]] could only be defeated through attrition, so Sylvanas decided that Garithos' men would attack from the rear, while [[Forsaken|Sylvanas's forces]] would attack from the front.<ref name=undead6x/> Balnazzar was unprepared by an attack of both armies.<ref name=HPG150/> Garithos' was informed of the missing [[Ironforge dwarves]], he was infuriated, but went in their search. He found and insulted them, commading them to help him in the battle, right after the dwarves joined his forces. With both arimes attacking from different sides, [[Balnazzar's Forces]], the [[Dreadlord Insurgents]] and the [[Dreadlord Loyalists]] were defeated.
 
 
Balnazzar was "killed" by his brother [[Varimathras]], then [[Garithos]] named [[Sylvanas]]' undead "wretched animals" and that they should leave ''his'' city, however Sylvanas ordered to Varimathras to kill [[Garithos]], which he did with glee<ref name=undead6x/> and then slew his army,<ref name=HPG150/> the New Alliance was annihilated. Sylvanas then renamed her faction as the [[Forsaken]] telling that Varimathras she would slaughter anyone who stands in their way.<ref name=undead6x/>
