Chapter 2 introduction

Months have passed since the thrilling Battle of Mount Hyjal, in which the evil Burning Legion was driven from Azeroth forever.Now, a mysterious black hole of energy in the mountains of Kalimdor brings the three warriors who once fought on the battlefield to ancient times - an era before the birth of orcs, humans, and even high-level elves.At that time, the dark titan Sargeras and his minions were trying their best to encourage Queen Azshara and her high elves to cleanse the lower races on the land of Azeroth.At the time, the Aspects were in their prime - but before long one of them would lead the world into unending darkness...

This book is the first in an epic trilogy of novels about how the three protagonists are drawn into a time vortex and change the outcome of an ancient war forever: Kathas the Dragon Mage Mysteriously lost part of his magic power and some memories about that war; while the human mage Luo Ning was running his own small family, he was intoxicated by his increasing magic power; and the experienced orc veteran Bu Loxshigar wanted nothing more than an honorable death in battle.These three unlikely beings must convince the demigod Cenarius and the skeptical night elves that their queen is a traitor, or the Burning Legion's gates to Azeroth will be reopened. If it is turned on, then this ancient war is likely to continue into the future...
