| + | The '''Halls of Reflection''' is the third and last wing of the [[User:GoldenYak/New_Icecrown|Icecrown Citadel]] instances. Once the private inner sanctum of the former [[Lich King]], it has been almost completely abandoned by the new lord of the Scourge. [[User:GoldenYak/Twilight_Master_Velius|Velius]] and the Twilight's Hammer of Northrend have infiltrated this area, in search of the great [[saronite]] [[necropolis]], Malykriss, the Vile Hold.. |

| − | == War of the shifting sands, problem. == |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | the timeline on the main page shows the war of the shifting sands to happen before the war of the ancients, but that conflicts with events detailed in the war of the ancients trilogy. During the war malfurian was young and not yet mated to Tyrande, but in wow it is quite clear that malfurion's son was killed by General Rajaxx of the Quirajii, not to mention that during the war of the ancients malfurion was somewhat unknown and in the war of the shifting sands he was clearly a powerful leader of his people. |
||
| + | When the [[Knights of the Ebon Blade]] rebelled against the [[Lich King]], they took with them the mighty [[necropolis]] [[Acherus]], the Ebon Hold. In response to the loss of this most potent weapon, the Lich King devised an even more powerful fortress to replace it - [[Malykriss]], the Vile Hold. Constructed completely of the dark metal [[saronite]], the solidified blood of [[Yogg-Saron]] himself, Malykriss was to be the ultimate weapon of the Lich King, a mobile engine of destruction that would carry his will to all the corners of Azeroth. |
||
| + | The Lich King was defeated before he could unleash the power of Malykriss, but the dark structure was actually completed prior to his fall. It has lain dormant within the depths of Icecrown, waiting. Visions of the powerful fortress have filled Velius' mind since he bonded saronite armor to his own flesh. The whispers of the [[Old Gods]] demand that he seize the vessel for the forces of Twilight. And so he shall. |

||
| + | Nearly all of Velius' lieutenants have been sacrificed in order for him to reach the Halls of Reflection. All that stands between the heroes of the Alliance and the Horde is Twilight Lord Xarosan, the last of Velius' subordinates. |
||
| − | :In [[The War of the Shifting Sands]] Shiromar recalls the war "as if it were only yesterday and not a thousand years past" during the opening of the scarab wall. Not very precise but that may help place the war in the timeline. I cannot find any reference to the war as occurring prior to the war of the anchients as described above.

| − | == "The spirit of Balnazzar" == |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | In the section of the article entitled [[Timeline#Between 21 and 25 Years After the First War|Between 21 and 25 Years After the First War]], there's a note that the "spirit of Balnazzar [...] possesses the body of the paladin Saiden Dathrohan." This seems inaccurate, since when you kill Dathrohan, he transforms into Balnazzar, not resurrects Balnazzar. It seems more likely that the dreadlord is actually masquerading as this paladin rather than possessing his body. See the article on [[Balnazzar]] for more information. I'd like to change that note to something more accurate but can't quite think of what that might be yet. {{User:Montag/sig}} |

| − | This timeline has been compiled and completele revised to match the latest official sources, taking retcons into account. The events and sources are now marked and offlinked from the timeline. This means all events Blizzard consider important and have provided an ability to order and determine relations by are present. This means no adding on random notes of events from the sources, as these are already included in the written accounts and the sources from Blizzard and would be very messy, difficult to place, and would result in admins needing to determine what what deserves to be added, and when enough is enough. It's better to leave this up to Blizzard. |

They would allow for Thrall to be only 10 year old during the liberation of the orcs, who's lethargy would have only lasted two years with this placement.

||
| − | :There is no possible way for Thrall to have been found as an infant during the time calculated by [[The New Horde]]. No matter which timeline you use to place the events included it, they all prove the date in to be false. This means the presumed age (18-20) is also wrong. |
||
| − | :Having said that, i've gone back over and expanded the span of LotC and other text that match it's events so they better reflect the length of events given by other timelines. Those events basically now span from 8-24. This leaves the New Horde starting around 14, which means Thrall was actually only 4-6 (as we only knew he was an infant, typically 1-2 years old, when found) when he started fighting, 6-8 when he escaped and 10-12 when he becomes warchief. Ridiculous i know, but it's just evident to how poorly the Warcraft timeline has been managed. |

| − | ::Most of the WoW patches are guesses, really just there more for an example, though I did try to place them roughly in the right timeframe. As for the Dragons of Outland, it's hard to say, since it's also supposed to lead into Wrath content, which could very well deal with Kalecgos being enslaved and other issues with the upcoming Sunwell Plateau content patch. There's also the possibility there will be multiple books, which could span a signifigant amount of the Burning Crusade "cycle". |

||
| − | |||
| − | According to ALL the timelines I've checked out, the novel Day of the Dragon (and of course its newly-released sequel Night of the Dragon) is listed AFTER the Warcraft II Expansion. Isn't this a major mistake, since the book tells about the rescue of the Dragonqueen? In fact, the briefing from the 5th orc mission in Beyond the Dark Portal (Dragons of Blackrock Spire) states: ''[...] With the Dragon Queen Alexstrasza rescued and the Dragonmaw clan captured by the Alliance''... events occured in the Richard A. Knaak novel. So I think every timeline should be modified accordingly. What do you think? |
||
| − | |||
| − | :The problem is that Blizzard has changed that date, just check the manual of Warcraft III or the timeline from the official site [http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/story/timeline.html]. I'm not sure (as I don't have the book) but I think that the novel [[Beyond the Dark Portal]] is told as if Day of the Dragon is after that war.

The "insight into events leading up to WotLK" should be taken merely for what it is: simple hints. In Rise of the Horde, for example, the intros to each of the chapters are narrated by Thrall, where he makes references to the present situation of his people (prior to The Burning Crusade, that is).

UNDER CONSTRUCTION related to Spider Kingdom Expansion Concept
The Halls of Reflection is the third and last wing of the Icecrown Citadel instances. Once the private inner sanctum of the former Lich King, it has been almost completely abandoned by the new lord of the Scourge. Velius and the Twilight's Hammer of Northrend have infiltrated this area, in search of the great saronite necropolis, Malykriss, the Vile Hold..
Lore
When the Knights of the Ebon Blade rebelled against the Lich King, they took with them the mighty necropolis Acherus, the Ebon Hold. In response to the loss of this most potent weapon, the Lich King devised an even more powerful fortress to replace it - Malykriss, the Vile Hold. Constructed completely of the dark metal saronite, the solidified blood of Yogg-Saron himself, Malykriss was to be the ultimate weapon of the Lich King, a mobile engine of destruction that would carry his will to all the corners of Azeroth.
The Lich King was defeated before he could unleash the power of Malykriss, but the dark structure was actually completed prior to his fall. It has lain dormant within the depths of Icecrown, waiting. Visions of the powerful fortress have filled Velius' mind since he bonded saronite armor to his own flesh. The whispers of the Old Gods demand that he seize the vessel for the forces of Twilight. And so he shall.
Nearly all of Velius' lieutenants have been sacrificed in order for him to reach the Halls of Reflection. All that stands between the heroes of the Alliance and the Horde is Twilight Lord Xarosan, the last of Velius' subordinates.

- The leader of the Twilight's Hammer. He has thrown the balance of power in Northrend into utter chaos, all for the opportunity to seize the greatest weapon of the Lich King. Who knows what dark plans he will bring to fruition if the mighty Malykriss falls into his hands? For the sake of Northrend, and all of Azeroth, he must be stopped.
