Sorrow Hill located in Western Plaguelands
History
Sorrow Hill is the name of the large cemetery south of Andorhal. In more peaceful times the cemetery was used to bury the deceased from Andorhol and the surrounding area. The Cemetery was used for both the rich and poor, having many crypts as well as simple plots. When the Plague of undeath struck and the scourge began their relentless raids and attacks, the number of cemetery residences skyrocketed. Quickly dug and poorly marked graves can still be seen at sorrow hill from the massive casualties suffered in the defense of Andorhol. Eventually the surviving townspeople stopped burying their dead, and instead dug a mass grave south of the cemetery to incinerate their loved ones, for fear of undeath taking them. The final blow for the surviving townsfolk was when Lord Uther was struck down by Arthas; The final act of the dwindling population before abandoning the town was to erect a great tomb where they buried the torn body of the great hero on the top of the cemetery hill. "Sorrow Hill" may refer to Uthers final resting place.
Present
Sorrow Hill, a gloomy place
The Plague Cauldrons in the surrounding area have caused the dead of Sorrow hill to rise. Deceased Soldiers (Skeletal Flayers) and citizens (Slavering Ghouls) now stand guard over their graves, defending the SE Road to Andorhal. Skeletal Mages have risen from their crypt in the southeast of the cemetery and reports of the Sorrow Hill scourge commander taking residence in the depths of this crypt are becoming more and more frequent...
Sorrow Hill, despite the strong scourge presence there, is more of a nuisance to the local Argent Dawn contingent, and often new recruits are sent on "upkeep" missions to keep the cemetery relatively clear.
Tactical Information
Level 50-52 Area
Due to its high population of easily dispatched mobs and close proximity to Chillwind Camp it's an extremely popular location for Alliance characters to grind or farm. During peak times it is almost impossible to find anything to kill here.
