Not only is '''Theramore Isle''' the [[Alliance]]'s only heavily fortified stronghold in [[Kalimdor]] and the capital of the [[Dustwallow Marsh]] with a population of 9,500 people.<ref>{{ref book |author= Kiley, Ellen P. |authorlink= Ellen P. Kiley |title=[[Lands of Mystery]] |isbn=9781588467843 |pages=36}}</ref>
'''Kalecgos''' is the current [[Dragon Aspects|Aspect]] of the [[blue dragonflight]], assuming the leadership of his broken flight after the death of [[Malygos]]. He often disguises himself as a [[half-elf]], calling himself Kalec. Due to the blues being most in tune with magic of all the dragonflights, Kalec has the powers of a sorcerer and the strength of a warrior.
 
   
  +
Theramore is a rocky island east of Dustwallow; the city, which bears the same name as the island, is alternatively known as '''Theramore Keep'''.<ref>''[[World of Warcraft: The Comic]]''</ref> It was originally settled with the sole purpose of survival. Yet the time since the Third War has seen the city prosper, making for a natural progression from mere subsistence to a desire to restore the glory of old. This large island is the Alliance's stronghold upon Southern Kalimdor.
Prior to the [[Nexus War]], Kalecgos was an investigator for his master Malygos, and became involved in the search for residual energies of the [[Sunwell]]. He opposed Malygos' war against mortal spellcasters, and after the Spellweaver's death became the blue dragonflight's ambassador to the [[Wyrmrest Accord]]. Sometime after the [[Shattering]], he formally became the new Aspect of Magic.
 
  +
  +
It was built primarily as a military fortress, but has grown somewhat to serve as a trading [[harbor|port]]. Approach from the sea is extremely difficult due to the jagged rocks jutting out of Dustwallow Bay, leaving travelers to journey on foot through the marsh to one of the villages that run ferries out to the island. Fearful of pirates from [[Ratchet]] and elsewhere, the cannons of Theramore will fire without warning on any ship approaching the island unannounced.<ref name="ReferenceA">{{ref book |author= Arthaus |title= [[Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]] |isbn=9781588460714 |pages=199}}</ref>
  +
  +
The importance of Theramore is emphasized by the fact that many class trainers reside here. A mage with sufficient skill can even use [[teleport]] and open [[Portal (spell)|portals]] into this city.

===The Sunwell===
 
{{Graphic novel}}
 
{{main|The Sunwell Trilogy}}
 
[[File:Kalecgos TCG.jpg|thumb|Kalecgos in his dragon form.]]
 
Kalecgos was a youngster of the blue flight, sent as an investigator by Malygos to [[Quel'Thalas]] to locate what appeared to be residual energies from the [[Sunwell]], believed to have been destroyed by the [[Scourge]] some time before. What he found - after being severely injured by the dwarven dragon hunter [[Harkyn Grymstone]] and his band - was a strange young human named [[Anveena Teague]], who lived with her parents outside [[Tarren Mill]]. As they evaded Harkyn's band of hunters as well as the occasional agent of the Scourge, Kalec and Anveena teamed up with Kalec's intended, [[Tyrygosa]], and the human paladin [[Jorad Mace]]. While in Tarren Mill, they were confronted by the Scourge led by the elven traitor [[Dar'Khan Drathir]], who sought the power of the Sunwell for himself. He believed it may have been the dragonling [[Raac]], hatched from an egg found in the ruins of Anveena's home, but later events prove this false.
 
   
  +
Theramore Isle is the Home of [[Jaina Proudmoore]] and the remaining Alliance forces who followed [[Medivh|Medivh's]] advice before the [[Burning Legion|Burning Legion's]] invasion and evacuated to [[Kalimdor]]. Theramore soldiers can also be found guarding [[Northwatch Hold]].
While seeking a way to remove Dar'Khan's enchanted collars from around his neck (which trapped him in humanoid form) and Anveena's, Kalec travelled to the Hinterlands - and in the process, battling the forces of both the Scourge and the Forsaken [[Baron Valimar Mordis]] - and it was there that he discovered that Anveena possessed great power, demonstrated by saving him from a potentially fatal fall from the cliffs below the Baron's castle. As she was trying to slow Kalec's fall, Anveena was captured by Dar'Khan, and taken to Quel'Thalas.
 
   
  +
Several [[Knights of the Silver Hand]], who travelled to Kalimdor together with Jaina Proudmoore, also have a small paladin lodge in the city.{{Citation needed}}
Kalec, Tyri and Jorad gave chase, travelling to the ruined elven kingdom themselves and first being captured, then aided, by [[Lor'themar Theron]], his lieutenant [[Halduron Brightwing]], and their band of rangers. Kalec discovered that Anveena was in fact the avatar of the Sunwell, and aided in the final battle that led to Dar'Khan's defeat. Afterwards, the previously-enslaved [[Korialstrasz]] - Prime Consort to [[Alexstrasza]], the red Aspect - explained that he had created the illusion that was Anveena, in order to prevent the Scourge from obtaining her power. When Lor'themar pledged himself to keeping Anveena safe, Kalec decided to remain behind as well as her protector. It is heavily implied that Kalec and Anveena became romantically involved shortly thereafter.
 
   
  +
It appears that despite Jaina's efforts, some people in Theramore continue to desire ill upon the orcs.<ref name="ReferenceB"/> They have attacked [[Balandar Brightstar]]'s ships and stolen his cargo and his first mate. [[Lieutenant Caldwell]] also displays a hatred for Horde and executed [[Paval Reethe]] for alleged involvement with the Horde.
===Nexus Point===
 
{{Graphic novel}}
 
When a group of [[nether dragon]]s attack the [[Nexus]], [[Tyrygosa]] contacted Kalec in desperate try to save the home of the blue dragonflight. In the end, however, Kalec arrived to late; Malygos had awoken, and in his insanity he absorbed the nether dragons into himself.<ref>[[Nexus Point]]</ref>
 
   
  +
But despite these feelings, the people of Theramore regardless of race are deeply loyal to Jaina Proudmoore especially those who fought under her in the Third War and would not act on their opinions. As seen in the novel, [[Cycle of Hatred]] a single comment of speaking ill about the lady would have led to a fight.
===Fury of the Sunwell ===
 
{{bc-section}}
 
[[File:Kalecgos Dragon Form.jpg|thumb|Kalecgos within Sunwell Plateau.]]
 
{{seealso|Kalecgos (tactics)}}
 
Kalecgos, true to his word, remained Anveena's protector while she assisted the Blood Elves in the reconstruction of their homeland. Not long after however the traitorious Prince Kael'thas, fresh from his defeat in [[Tempest Keep]], suddenly reappears in Quel'thalas, along with the forces of the [[Burning Legion]]. Before Kalec can react, the legion captures Anveena, hoping to use her to bring their master, the demonlord [[Kil'jaeden]], to [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. Kalecgos, along with his companion [[Madrigosa]], attempt to foil Kil'jaeden's plans, but in the process Kalecgos becomes possessed by the [[dreadlord]] [[Sathrovarr the Corruptor]].
 
   
  +
===Cataclysm===
In the Sunwell Plateau raid, the encounter with Kalecgos is on two fronts, literally. The "Physical" front is the one players engage the blue dragon head on, in the physical world, but soon after encountering Kalecgos, portals open up to a much darker, spiritual world called the Inner Veil, where you find that the half-elf form of Kalecgos is battling against [[Sathrovarr the Corruptor]]. To complete this encounter, players must simultaneously aid Kalec in killing Sathrovarr the Corruptor, while subdueing Kalecgos' dragon form, in order to set him free.

With the [[Southern Barrens]] being divided and being fought over, the [[Alliance]] has had a highway constructed that connects Theramore to Dustwallow Marsh, allowing the Alliance to more quickly move supplies and troops from Theramore to Alliance military bases in the Southern Barrens.

Kalecgos later aids players in the fight against [[Kil'jaeden]], where Anveena sacrifices herself to keep the demonlord from breaking through to Azeroth.

{{mop-section}}
  +
During [[patch 4.4.0]], which will lead the game into ''[[World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria|Mists of Pandaria]]'', Theramore will be destroyed by the [[Horde]], and the leaders of the [[Alliance]], outraged at this matter, will completely devote themselves into the [[Alliance-Horde War|war]].<ref>http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/2527-Pandaren-Gameplay-Video-Theramore-Destroyed-Free-Diablo-3-12-Months-Offer</ref>
{{main|Night of the Dragon}}
 
Following the loss of Anveena, Kalec became brooding and depressed, finally being sent away from the Nexus on an errand to investigate Grim Batol after starting more than one fight with his fellow blues. Kalecgos was not only upset by losing Anveena, but also by his lord Malygos's more recent stance on mortals and their handling of magic, one he appears to disagree with. At Grim Batol, Kalecgos encountered the red dragon [[Korialstrasz]]. At first, Kalec's attitude towards the consort of Alexstrasza was bitter and antagonistic; he blamed Krasus for his constant interference, and particularly for giving Anveena the illusion of life knowing how it would end.<ref>''[[Night of the Dragon]]'', 96-97</ref>
 
   
  +
==Description==
In Grim Batol's halls, Kalec and Krasus discovered the black dragon [[Sintharia]], now known as Sinestra, creating a new flight of dragons. Working together, oftentimes begrudingly, the two dragons with the assistance of [[Rhonin]], [[Vereesa Windrunner]], [[Rom]], the draenei priestess [[Iridi]], and the nether dragon [[Zzeraku]], they overcame Sintharia and her creation, the twilight dragon [[Dargonax]]. Iridi perished in the final battle, and Kalec took it upon himself to return her body to [[Outland]]. When asked by Krasus if Malygos would allow him to go to Outland, Kalec replied that - permitted or not - he was going anyway; to see Outland once more was Iridi's dying wish, and she deserved to be buried there.

Inside the thick walls of Theramore, the people have labored hard to recreate a piece of [[Lordaeron (kingdom)|Lordaeron]]. Graceful towers rise high above clean, cobblestone streets lined with shops and homes. At the eastern part of the city lies the [[Foothold Citadel]], a squat keep housing the chambers of the Alliance Assembly.
  +
[[File:Theramore Anniversary.jpg|thumb|]]
   
  +
===People and culture===
[[File:Kalec at Wyrmrest.jpg|thumb|right|Kalec at Wyrmrest Temple]]
 
  +
Though the streets recall the quiet serenity of the Alliance of Lordaeron, the meetings of the Assembly reveal the considerable strain among the city's residents. After years of near-paternal guidance of the humans of Lordaeron, the [[high elves]] resent being forced to rely on the hospitality of the younger race since arriving on Kalimdor. As humans hold five of the seven seats on the Alliance Assembly, both the elves (with two seats) and the [[dwarves]] (with none) feel under-represented in the leadership of both Theramore and the Alliance in general. As the dwarves continue to accumulate more evidence of their Titan heritage that they want to present to their King in [[Khaz Modan]], their protests that the Alliance does little to return across the sea grow louder and louder.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> Also, diplomatic relationship between the humans on Kalimdor and their brethren in the Eastern Kingdoms — especially the people of Stormwind, whose leadership wants to challenge Theramore on its new role as the Alliance's capital — have been getting worse in the past, with each side accusing the other of fatal mistakes during the last war. While the people of Theramore hold a grudge against their relatives for triggering the [[Horde]]'s counterattack on the city, the humans on the other side of the ocean feel they have a right to get more support from Theramore.
   
  +
Despite this internal debate, the Alliance places a high value on law and order in Theramore, and city guards make regular patrols to maintain the peace. When skirmishes break out between high elves and night elves or a dwarf gets too rowdy, the guards are quick to round up the offenders for a speedy trial at the Foothold Citadel and imprisonment in Ironclad Prison, the dungeons of which are along tunnels dug deep into the rock of the island. Sentences for fighting and disturbing the peace tend to be light (usually only a few days' incarceration), but sentences for more serious violations of the Alliance's code of law, such as high robbery or murder, can be much more severe.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>
It is not known where Kalecgos went after that, nor the stance he takes during the [[Nexus War]]. However, it is likely he chose to not follow Malygos' orders - his distaste for the Aspect's decision to purge all mortal spellcasters was made clear to Korialstrasz.<ref>''[[Night of the Dragon]]'', 163</ref>
 
   
===Forging of Quel'Delar===
+
===Home of the Western Alliance===
  +
In the RPGs, Theramore is described as the official home of the newer, western Alliance in Kalimdor, insinuating that there are two governmental bodies maintaining order in the Alliance.<ref name="ReferenceB">{{ref book |author= Arthaus |title= [[World of Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]] |isbn=9781588467812 |pages=12}}</ref>
{{wotlk-section}}
 
Kalecgos, now the ambassador of the blue dragonflight to the [[Wyrmrest Accord]], appears in Alexstrasza's chamber in [[Wyrmrest Temple]] standing next to [[Lord Itharius]]. During the quest [[Quest:What The Dragons Know]], part of the questchain to restore [[Quel'Delar]], Kalec steps forward as [[Krasus]] speaks to the player. He questions the wisdom of reforging the blade, feeling that the mortals would not be powerful enough to wield it, and remembering that [[Demon Soul|powerful weapons]] crafted by dragonkind had been turned against them in the past. He pledged not to interfere if the mortals reforge the blade, but warned that he will keep a close watch.
 
   
  +
==Banner of Theramore==
===Cataclysm===
 
  +
The anchor device on Theramore's banner perhaps has a double meaning: most obviously that Theramore is a port city; and that Theramore is a kind of anchor for the Alliance in Kalimdor and will not waver. The banner also displays a solar disk with rays and three stars appear below the anchor. The meaning for those are not certain. Some banners also display the "L"-like symbol of the [[Alliance of Lordaeron]], clearly indicating the city's roots. [[Jaina Proudmoore]] - the ruler of Theramore - is the daughter of Lord Admiral [[Daelin Proudmoore]], former leader of the merchant nation of [[Kul Tiras]]. The similarity between Theramore's banner and the flag of [[Kul Tiras]] stems from this relationship.
{{Cata-section}}
 
At some point Kalec relocated to [[Azshara]], fearing that the death of [[Malygos]] was a sign of weakness on the part of the blue dragonflight, and that [[Deathwing]] would send agents to assassinate rest of the flight. This held true, as the black dragonflight invaded Azshara to hunt down [[Azuregos]]. Kalec can be found in [[Bilgewater Harbor]],{{coords|55.4|52.1|Azshara}} where he and Azuregos [[Azshara storyline#Azuregos quest chain|help low level Horde players to repel the invasion]].<ref>[http://www.worldofraids.com/topic/17178-cataclysm-lore-details/ Cataclysm Lore Details - World of Raids Forums]</ref>
 
   
  +
The tabard that Theramore guards wear bear the anchor device only. It appears only on the front, and instead of using blue, on the tabard it is gold.
Meanwhile, the blue dragonflight struggled with the issue of appointing a new leader. Its members were torn between Kalecgos and [[Arygos]], the two likeliest successors. Arygos believed that his kind should withdraw from the world and forge a new path while Kalecgos believed that they should play an active part in the world's affairs. Ultimately, the flight agreed to meet during the [[Embrace]] in hopes that one of them would be selected as the new Aspect.<ref>[http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2685003 Patch 4.2 Preview: A Legendary Engagement]</ref>
 
   
  +
<gallery widths="150">
Arygos, who was secretly allied with [[Deathwing]], attempted to have Kalecgos assassinated to ensure his own succession. However, his plan failed when [[Tarecgosa]] sacrificed herself to save Kalecgos, and Arygos flew off, threatening the rest of his flight with Deathwing's impending wrath.

[[File:Kalecgos becoming Aspect.jpg|thumb|250px|right|Kalecgos becoming the new Aspect as seen during the [[Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest|Dragonwrath questline]]]]
 
Kalecgos became the new Blue Aspect as the "Embrace" took place when observing with the rest of his flight at the Nexus. This happened just in time as Arygos, secretely working with the twilight hammer cult, realised he will not become the Blue Aspect and calls for the twilight dragons for battle. Kalecgos's new found powers proved too strong for the [[twilight dragon]]s, which caused the twilight dragons to retreat. Kalecgos knowing him and his blue flight had the advantage, gave pursuit to the twlight dragons and chased them back to their newly found base, Wrymrest Temple, where Kalecgos was met in battle by a very strong [[chromatic dragon]] called [[Chromatus]]. This newly created abbomination proved too powerful even for the newly empowered Blue Aspect and his blue flight and sent them fleeing back to the Nexus.
 
   
  +
===Flight===
Kalecgos next battle would be along side not only his own flight, but the red and green including their Aspects Alextrasza and Ysera. The three Aspects led an assualt at the twilight hammer cult, specifically Chromatus. However Chromatus was too powerful even with the combined attacks of the three aspects, they would have surely died if not [[Nozdormu]] and his flight didn't show up and ordered a retreat. With little time they had, the four aspects joined hands with [[Thrall]] as he led a ritual to combine the essences of the aspects, Thrall taking place as the earth-warder. The four aspects with their new found power breathed white-gold flames at Chromatus and defeated him.

Not only is Theramore Isle the Alliance's only heavily fortified stronghold in Kalimdor and the capital of the Dustwallow Marsh with a population of 9,500 people.[4]

Theramore is a rocky island east of Dustwallow; the city, which bears the same name as the island, is alternatively known as Theramore Keep.[5] It was originally settled with the sole purpose of survival. Yet the time since the Third War has seen the city prosper, making for a natural progression from mere subsistence to a desire to restore the glory of old. This large island is the Alliance's stronghold upon Southern Kalimdor.

It was built primarily as a military fortress, but has grown somewhat to serve as a trading port. Approach from the sea is extremely difficult due to the jagged rocks jutting out of Dustwallow Bay, leaving travelers to journey on foot through the marsh to one of the villages that run ferries out to the island. Fearful of pirates from Ratchet and elsewhere, the cannons of Theramore will fire without warning on any ship approaching the island unannounced.[6]

The importance of Theramore is emphasized by the fact that many class trainers reside here. A mage with sufficient skill can even use teleport and open portals into this city.

History

Theramore

Theramore City at night.

Theramore Isle is the Home of Jaina Proudmoore and the remaining Alliance forces who followed Medivh's advice before the Burning Legion's invasion and evacuated to Kalimdor. Theramore soldiers can also be found guarding Northwatch Hold.

Several Knights of the Silver Hand, who travelled to Kalimdor together with Jaina Proudmoore, also have a small paladin lodge in the city.[citation needed] 

It appears that despite Jaina's efforts, some people in Theramore continue to desire ill upon the orcs.[7] They have attacked Balandar Brightstar's ships and stolen his cargo and his first mate. Lieutenant Caldwell also displays a hatred for Horde and executed Paval Reethe for alleged involvement with the Horde.

But despite these feelings, the people of Theramore regardless of race are deeply loyal to Jaina Proudmoore especially those who fought under her in the Third War and would not act on their opinions. As seen in the novel, Cycle of Hatred a single comment of speaking ill about the lady would have led to a fight.

Cataclysm

Cataclysm This section concerns content related to Cataclysm.

With the Southern Barrens being divided and being fought over, the Alliance has had a highway constructed that connects Theramore to Dustwallow Marsh, allowing the Alliance to more quickly move supplies and troops from Theramore to Alliance military bases in the Southern Barrens.

Mists of Pandaria

Mists of Pandaria This section concerns content related to Mists of Pandaria.

During patch 4.4.0, which will lead the game into Mists of Pandaria, Theramore will be destroyed by the Horde, and the leaders of the Alliance, outraged at this matter, will completely devote themselves into the war.[8]

Description

Icon-RPG This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.

Inside the thick walls of Theramore, the people have labored hard to recreate a piece of Lordaeron. Graceful towers rise high above clean, cobblestone streets lined with shops and homes. At the eastern part of the city lies the Foothold Citadel, a squat keep housing the chambers of the Alliance Assembly.

Theramore Anniversary

People and culture

Though the streets recall the quiet serenity of the Alliance of Lordaeron, the meetings of the Assembly reveal the considerable strain among the city's residents. After years of near-paternal guidance of the humans of Lordaeron, the high elves resent being forced to rely on the hospitality of the younger race since arriving on Kalimdor. As humans hold five of the seven seats on the Alliance Assembly, both the elves (with two seats) and the dwarves (with none) feel under-represented in the leadership of both Theramore and the Alliance in general. As the dwarves continue to accumulate more evidence of their Titan heritage that they want to present to their King in Khaz Modan, their protests that the Alliance does little to return across the sea grow louder and louder.[6] Also, diplomatic relationship between the humans on Kalimdor and their brethren in the Eastern Kingdoms — especially the people of Stormwind, whose leadership wants to challenge Theramore on its new role as the Alliance's capital — have been getting worse in the past, with each side accusing the other of fatal mistakes during the last war. While the people of Theramore hold a grudge against their relatives for triggering the Horde's counterattack on the city, the humans on the other side of the ocean feel they have a right to get more support from Theramore.

Despite this internal debate, the Alliance places a high value on law and order in Theramore, and city guards make regular patrols to maintain the peace. When skirmishes break out between high elves and night elves or a dwarf gets too rowdy, the guards are quick to round up the offenders for a speedy trial at the Foothold Citadel and imprisonment in Ironclad Prison, the dungeons of which are along tunnels dug deep into the rock of the island. Sentences for fighting and disturbing the peace tend to be light (usually only a few days' incarceration), but sentences for more serious violations of the Alliance's code of law, such as high robbery or murder, can be much more severe.[6]

Home of the Western Alliance

In the RPGs, Theramore is described as the official home of the newer, western Alliance in Kalimdor, insinuating that there are two governmental bodies maintaining order in the Alliance.[7]

The anchor device on Theramore's banner perhaps has a double meaning: most obviously that Theramore is a port city; and that Theramore is a kind of anchor for the Alliance in Kalimdor and will not waver. The banner also displays a solar disk with rays and three stars appear below the anchor. The meaning for those are not certain. Some banners also display the "L"-like symbol of the Alliance of Lordaeron, clearly indicating the city's roots. Jaina Proudmoore - the ruler of Theramore - is the daughter of Lord Admiral Daelin Proudmoore, former leader of the merchant nation of Kul Tiras. The similarity between Theramore's banner and the flag of Kul Tiras stems from this relationship.

The tabard that Theramore guards wear bear the anchor device only. It appears only on the front, and instead of using blue, on the tabard it is gold.
